Draft Local Plan Review
Representation ID: 3507
Received: 17/02/2017
Respondent: UK Land Development (UKLD)
Agent: Savills
Representation Summary:
Government published their response to Starter Homes Technical Consultation on 07.02.17. Concluded they will not make 20% Starter Homes compulsory.
Intended that NPPF will be amended to introduce clear policy expectation that 10% of new development is affordable housing.
50% target is 10% higher than existing policy. No Viability work been undertaken yet.
As not supported by Government expectations or viability testing then consider 50% is inappropriately high and should be revised to according to viability work.
