Comment
Draft Local Plan - Supplementary Consultation
Representation ID: 9507
Received: 15/03/2019
Respondent: The Knowle Society
Representation Summary:
Supply of new homes is governed by demand and as the past average annual rate achieved over the last 10 years is half the suggested requirement, it is argued the proposed requirement rate is completely unrealistic.
Any later changes in the 2020 projections will have an impact on future building rates but if it is less, then this raises the question of whether there is a need to demonstrate such land availability now. The overall land availability should be provided over a much longer term than this local plan suggests.
