Insufficient housing is being directed to the villages and hamlets.
Policy RDS4 identifies 1,000 houses to villages; and this is translated in Policy RDS5 to approximately 600 houses to primary service villages and 400 houses to secondary service villages.
This distribution is questioned.
Overall housing figures should be increased in order that the fully objectively assessed housing need is met by the Plan; and that a greater proportion of housing should be directed to village locations.
This should include increased housing provision at Hampton Magna over and above the 100 - 150 houses identified in Policy RDS5.
Refers to separate promotional document prepared in respect of land at Maple Lodge which offers the opportunity to deliver 100 - 150 high quality dwellings in a sustainable location, close to the village centre, without increasing traffic through the existing village
