Both applications can be viewed on the Council’s website, including newly-submitted information.

Guidance for people who have already commented is available at www.west-norfolk.gov.uk/waylandfarms.

Anyone wishing to view a hard copy of the Environmental Statement can do the following:

1. Visit the Borough Council of King’s Lynn and West Norfolk offices at Kings Court, Chapel Street, King’s Lynn, Norfolk, PE30 1EX (please note the office closes at 2.00pm on Tuesday 24th December and re-opens on Thursday 2nd January); or

2. Purchase a copy from the applicant’s agent, Bidwells. You can email them at info@bidwells.co.uk or write to them at Kingfisher House, 1 Gilders Way, Norwich, Norfolk, NR3 1UB. A charge of £350 will be made for a paper copy of the Environmental Statement and Technical Appendices or £15 for a CD. The Non-Technical Summary can be provided free of charge.

You can comment on the application in the following ways:

1. (Preferred) You can comment using the planning portal on the council’s website at www.west-norfolk.gov.uk Under Planning and Development on the front page, select ‘View and track planning applications’, then select ‘Search for planning applications by number’ and enter the planning reference number (see above). This is preferred because it instantly adds your comment to the application page and it also avoids adding new scanned documents, which slows down the running of the site.

2. You can email your comment to borough.planning@west-norfolk.gov.uk

3. You can write to the Borough Council at Kings Court, Chapel Street, King’s Lynn, Norfolk, PE30 1EX.

If writing or emailing, please make sure you give the planning reference number(s). Your comments will be scanned and loaded to the system as a ‘document’. All comments received by the deadline are considered, regardless of how they have been submitted. Due to the large volume of comments we receive, we are unable to acknowledge or respond to individual comments.

The deadline for comments is midnight on 24 JANUARY 2025 Environment and Planning Borough Council of Kings Lynn and West Norfolk Dated: 18 December 2024
