Local Plan 2015-2030 Preferred Options for Consultation
Representation ID: 232
Received: 29/09/2013
Respondent: Basildon Borough Council
The proposed delivery of 3,500 dwellings over the plan period in Brentwood Borough would also not support the adequate provision of affordable housing that the Borough requires, nor would it provide the level of homes required to support its local economy.
Basildon Borough is not within the same Strategic Housing Market Area as Brentwood Borough. Basildon Borough Council would therefore recommend that Brentwood's own Strategic Housing Market Areas be explored first to accommodate unmet need, in line with the NPPF. Subsequently, Basildon Borough Council strongly objects to accommodating Brentwood's unmet needs and therefore Brentwood Borough Council's preferred approach.
