Solihull Local Plan (Draft Submission) 2020

Representation ID: 13819

Received: 14/12/2020

Respondent: William Davis Ltd

Agent: Define Planning & Design

Legally compliant? Yes

Sound? No

Duty to co-operate? Not specified

Representation Summary:

An individual showing interest via a Housing and Custom Build Registers rarely equates to a genuine desire / ability to build on a Self / Custom Build plot. The actual demand is likely to be significantly lower.

The blanket policy approach, requiring 5% of open market dwellings to be delivered in the form of Self and Custom Build Plots on sites of 100 dwellings or more, does not take account of localised needs or site specific constraints to delivery.

Change suggested by respondent:

The policy should be revoked as it is fundamentally unsound.
