Draft Local Plan - Supplementary Consultation

Representation ID: 8525

Received: 15/03/2019

Respondent: Kier Living Ltd - Coleshill Road

Agent: Nexus Planning

Representation Summary:

SHELAA housing trajectory demonstrates that Council is relying on a number of large-scale strategic allocations to deliver dwellings early in the Emerging Plan period. Site 16 comprises 5 separate site submissions/ownerships with no indication consortium or agreement formed. Site subject to constraints including heritage assets, notable wildlife habitats and significant trees. Plan should require site-wide masterplan/development brief to be approved before applications made. Without agreement, unlikely that 400 dwellings will be delivered in first 5 years. High risk that significant proportion of 5 year housing requirement will not be delivered.
