Representation ID: 9334
Received: 15/03/2019
Respondent: St Philips Land - Land at Smiths Lane Browns Lane & Widney Manor Road
Agent: Avison Young
St Philips agrees with the approach of applying the Standard Method for calculating housing need for the Plan period, but notes that the calculation provides a minimum figure and a starting point for the preparation of the Local Plan.
Although not consulted on, St Philips does not consider the 2,000 contribution is sound.
In terms of housing supply:
Council should provide full schedule of sites in the housing supply and proposed trajectory, inc. permissions.
Do not consider there is sufficient evidence for inclusion of BLR sites in the supply assumptions.
Need further evidence to justify continued inclusion of SLP sites.
More justification required for UKCHub and NEC figures.
Question deliverability of windfall sites at 150dpa over plan period.
Should provide more information on 1ha sites in accordance with NPPF.
