Every provincial town could have a retirement scheme built that includes all of the types of retirement housing and related facilities, the building of retirement villages should be encouraged.
Brentwood Borough needs a "Retirement Village" of 400 - 500 dwellings with all relevant services on site to include health care, recreation and an adequate general store.

Brentwood Borough requires retirement housing to be built in the various satellite communities, not just in Brentwood Town.
None of the site allocations indentified by Brentwood are likely to have housing for the retired built on them, they will all go for family/Affordable Housing. For the retired to be provided for, schemes not allocated must be encouraged.
Schemes for retirement housing should be encouraged to come forward on the basis they will be assessed upon their overall merit and not ruled out solely because the land that is to be built on does not happen to be an allocation.
