Draft Local Plan - Supplementary Consultation
Representation ID: 9514
Received: 15/03/2019
Respondent: The Knowle Society
Representation Summary:
This suggestion is close to the ideal but not quite there.
At present, the gross internal floor areas of market housing are subject to a continual downwards direction to make them smaller whilst still maximising the price the accommodation of each house offers to the market.
The result is housing which should provide less accommodation eg three bedrooms, rather than 4, in an acceptable total floor space area so that its usable space is in fact, truly useable by it being capable of housing the requisite number of people comfortably, irrelevant of its tenure.
