Draft Local Plan - Supplementary Consultation
Representation ID: 8784
Received: 15/03/2019
Respondent: Rainier Developments Ltd - Land at Widney Manor Road
Agent: Barton Willmore Planning
Representation Summary:
Site 407 is located in an area where the provision of affordable housing is identified in the Draft Plan as being challenging. Given this is one of the most sustainable locations within the Borough, the reliance on windfalls is not an acceptable approach to delivering affordable housing and deliverable sites should be identified to meet the well-publicised affordability issues. In light of this need, and the lack of suitable alternatives, there are clearly exceptional circumstances for the release of our Client's site (407)for a 100% affordable housing scheme.
