Representation Summary:
Evidently not all schemes will be able to deliver policy-compliant affordable housing provision (taking account of site viability) and some developments will fall below the threshold. Assuming 30% affordable housing delivery with a target of 362 dwellings per annum, 109 affordable homes would be delivered per annum. The plan thus can be expected to meet less than half of the affordable need - providing a clear basis considering higher provision.
The high need for affordable housing clearly points to a need to consider increasing overall housing delivery.
