Representation Summary:
Believes that the Local Plan is to be a 25-30 year document so there needs to be a consideration of the level of demand over the last 20-25 years. Should not take a snapshot of the last 5 years (at the hot end of a credit boomwhich has now ended).
The Council consulted on three levels of growth and overuled the publics wishes for low growth choosing to select the highest figure available. Historical build rate figures are true evidence (if the figures are correct) however all other estimates are just estimates and may or may not be robust. Submission suggests that demand has not been correctly assessed and that the housing requirementas are too high.
