Explanatory text suggests a confused situation in relation to the delivery of residential development. Paragraph 85 advises that the Hub Framework Plan (2018) could provide ‘up to 4,000 homes’ to 2047 ‘with about 1,000 delivered by 2033’, but that the Urban Growth Company in its Hub Growth and Infrastructure Vision (2019) estimates ‘up to 5,000 new homes’. There needs to be a commitment in policy to quantifying the amount of residential development to be delivered by the hub, and specific referencing to the detail as to where this should go to ensure that the plan’s deliverability.
It is recommended that the policy is amended to specify the quantum of growth which the hub will deliver over the plan period.
It is recommended that the policy is linked to clear plans showing where the residential growth will be delivered within the hub boundaries in order to show deliverability.
