Comment
Draft Local Plan - Supplementary Consultation
Representation ID: 9159
Received: 14/03/2019
Respondent: The Home Builders Federation Midland Region
Representation Summary:
No exceptional circumstances to justify the Council using an alternative approach to the Government's standard methodology.
This figure is only the minimum starting point. Any ambitions to support economic growth, to deliver affordable housing and to meet unmet housing needs from elsewhere are additional to the local housing need figure.
No clear justification for 2,000 dwellings as the chosen figure for Solihull's contribution to the HMA shortfall. The HBF will submit representations on the proposed overall housing requirement figure in response to the pre-submission Local Plan consultation.
