Local Plan 2015-2030 Preferred Options for Consultation
Representation ID: 823
Received: 02/10/2013
Respondent: Croudace Strategic Ltd
Agent: Barton Willmore
Representation Summary:
This policy is overly prescriptive in terms of density requirements. Whilst we support the Council's aspirations to meet its housing requirements through the Local Plan and agree that developers are required to use land efficiently, a policy that sets a blanket density requirement across the Borough may create viability/deliverability issues for sites coming forward. Similarly, it may also be directly at odds with Policy DM1 in requiring higher residential densities than those in the surrounding area, affecting the general character of the area.
