Paragraph 68 of the NPPF sets out that small and medium sized sites can make an important contribution to meeting thehousing requirement of an area, and are often built-out relatively quickly. To promote the development of a good mix of sites local planning authorities should identify, through the development plan and brownfield registers, land to accommodate at least 10% of their housing requirement on sites no larger than one hectare; unless it can be shown, through the preparation of relevant planpolicies, that there are strong reasons why this 10% target cannot be achieved.
The Council should identify more small sites to cater for small builders who otherside cannot secure sufficient land to carry them forward.
