Respondent: Bunwell Parish Council

Representation Summary:

We fully support the view that our valued landscapes must be protected but some are not as we would like. Solar energy farm installations on arable land seem a questionable alternative to food production in addition to not being attractive. Wind farms are not at all appealing to the eye and are a noise intrusion for local houses. Extreme care must continue with the siting of new housing developments, large and small and to consider and avoid any loss of view for local residents and the village as a whole when alternative, less intrusive options are available.
