Appendix C - Sustainability Appraisal Final Report Colchester Preferred Options Local Plan February 2025
Representation ID: 13996
Received: 14/01/2026
Respondent: Boyer
PP43 also performs well as a site allocation when considered against the SA objectives as
detailed within the documentation supporting the consultation.
As noted in our responses to the policies, we are concerned that there may be some internal
conflict between strategic policies and the site-specific policies and also with national policy
or legislation such as the Building Regulations. The SA is the most appropriate route to
consider the relationship between emerging policies, and the Council should continue to
develop their plan alongside emerging evidence and continually undertaking the
Sustainability Appraisal considerations.
Hopkins Homes are pleased to see that the Council has identified the land north of
Colchester Road as a site-specific allocation and included Policy PP43 within the Preferred
Options consultation draft.
We agree with the Council that the site is a suitable location for future residential
development and can be delivered within the plan period to make a significant contribution to
housing delivery and meeting the housing needs of Colchester.
