Preferred Site Allocations 2018

Representation ID: 19735

Received: 12/03/2018

Respondent: Countryside Properties

Agent: Andrew Martin Planning Ltd

Representation Summary:

Recent DCLG advised a target of 454 dwellings per annum. The Council proposes to stick with 380 dpa. It states that "should the Council need to accommodate this significant increase in housing need, consideration is being given as to whether the delivery of DHGV could be accelerated to increase its dwelling yield within the plan period." Its current capacity is around 2,500 with a possible total yield of 4,000. This assertion is made in the absence of a detailed site assessment. In any event this would result in a single development providing 46% of required housing over the plan period.
