See attached letter for full question response.
We remain of the view that an allowance of 2,000 homes is not sound. Evidence underpinning this will have to be explained as part of the plan-making process
We suspect that when properly assessed, the
scale of unmet need forecast across the HMA to 2036 will be significantly higher than specified in the SGS.
This in turn, will necessitate the identification and allocation of
additional sites for housing development.
The Council must also assess its needs over a longer term period (stretching well beyond the normal plan period)
