The project’s financing made little difference for most people. Asked whether they would be prepared to pay an additional £3 per year in council tax in order for the council to pay back a loan for the land, 89pc of Dereham respondents said yes, with just 7pc saying no and the rest unsure.
“I’m really pleased with the results of the survey - I’m quite surprised in a way it’s as high as that,” Mr Morton remarked.
The council then discussed how best to finance the project.
