Site MIN 212 Mundham should be allocated for the extraction of sand and gravel. There are no issues preventing allocation which cannot be mitigated and there could be positive effects on biodiversity and flood risk as well as the contribution made by the working of a proven high-grade mineral. The Site was considered suitable to allocate in the Initial Consultation and Preferred Options documents but not in the Publication document (refer to Cabinet Paper para 2.19). The Cabinet Paper makes reference to a 'concern' raised by the Highway Authority but the Authority does not object to the allocation (para 5.9)
Site MIN 212 should be allocated as there are no issues preventing allocation which cannot be adequately mitigated; working will result in positive benefits; the mineral is of a proven high-grade and will make a contribution towards the forecast shortfall and vehicle movements will be closely controlled by an HGV Management Plan to ensure there are no adverse impacts on the amenity or safety of residents of Trowse village and White Horse Lane.
