We have concerns with the current approach to SA in respect of both how the proposed total housing figure has been considered; and specific individual sites have been assessed. In respect of the total housing target for inclusion in the Local Plan, we note the Interim SA published alongside the DLP assumes the Local Plan will plan for the delivery of 7,240 new homes over the plan period (2013 - 2033). As set out within this representation, the provision of a greater number of new homes is clearly a reasonable alternative that merits consideration. However, there appears to be no assessment of the sustainability of a higher level of growth.
