Representation ID: 16121

Respondent: Countryside Properties
Agent: Andrew Martin Planning Ltd
Representation Summary:
In its Autumn Statement the government announced a package of measures to accelerate housebuilding over the next five years.

This will act as a further threat for under-performing authorities, alongside the implications of failing to identify a five-year supply of deliverable land. The new Local Plan needs to bear this in mind and ensure that it concentrates on growth for the area and that it is focused on the delivery and the practicalities of housing the population.
