Draft Local Plan Review
Representation ID: 3886

Respondent: Mark Horgan

Para. 211 should be amended to state shortfall is 37,900.
2,000 figure cannot be relied upon until HMA enters into a MoU.
Housing figure should be increased due to uncertainty around Birmingham shortfall and use of lower end of SHMA requirement range.
Sites in the SHLAA should be allocated through the Plan.
Densities per site should be agreed through concept masterplans rather than a blanket 36dph.
Phasing of sites should be dependent on the market.
Not releasing sites until their phased designation is not positive planning and is contrary to Para.'s 14 and 157 of NPPF.
