24 September 2009 – Council Adopts the
Minerals Specific Site Allocation Development Plan
Document
Suffolk County Council formally
adopted the Minerals Specific Site Allocation Development Plan
Document on 24th September 2009.
This document forms part of a suite of documents which make up
the Suffolk Minerals and Waste Development Framework and is a
sister document to Minerals Core Strategy which contains policies
for determining planning applications for minerals related
development and was adopted in 2008.
The Minerals Specific Site Allocation Development Plan Document
identifies on maps twelve sites for sand and gravel extraction
containing 10.53mt and will meet the identified need for sand and
gravel until 2021.
In line with the Minerals Core Strategy ten of the sites are
extensions to existing quarries. The two new sites previously
appeared in Suffolk Minerals Local Plan 1999 which the Site
Allocations document replaces. The sites identified are as
follows.
- Waldringfield (two areas)
- Coddenham
- Layham
- Barham
- Chilton (new site)
- Timworth (new site)
- Homersfield/Flixton (two areas)
- Worlington/Red Lodge (two areas)
- Cavenham
A Sustainability
Appraisal of sites has been undertaken and is also available on
line.
