For a sustainable plan there should be a balance of homes and jobs. Table 5.2 confirms that the employment growth projected requires the delivery of 716 dwellings per year. If this higher level of housing development is not provided, this will mean that 2088 homes will need to be built in neighbouring districts, which is not a robust basis on which to promote the plan. Added to the 10800 homes already proposed this would give a requirement for 12900 dwellings or 717 dwellings per year. Taking off commitments, SHLAA sites and windfall sites this would leave a requirement for 9086 new dellings. Applying the council's 20% flexibility allowance this would produce a requirement to find 10,903 further housing plots.
