Local Plan 2015-2030 Preferred Options for Consultation

Representation ID: 1890

Received: 02/10/2013

Respondent: Crest Nicholson

Agent: Savills UK

Representation Summary:

Paragraph's 2.29 and 2.32 of the consultation document identify that BBC has commissioned a number of technical studies to inform their view of how OAN can be met and how many homes can be accommodated. Paragraph 2.29 acknowledges that the majority of this work has not yet been published, and on this basis it is considered that the selection of a Preferred Option (which consequently rules out other approaches) is unsound. The absence of relevant technical work in order to support this decision is contrary to all four tests of soundness identified within paragraph 182 of the NPPF: positively prepared, justified, effective and consistent with national policy.
