Village Housing Options and Settlement Boundaries

Representation ID: 61052

Received: 19/01/2014

Respondent: Les Clark

Representation Summary:

I welcome the reduction from the disproportionate number of 150 dwellings in the last consultation to 62 in the current proposal. It should be possible to integrate 62 into the village provided that the developments are phased rather than concentrated in the first years of the Local Plan. In addition the affordable housing components should be reserved for young families and the elderly of the village.

There is still a need for clarity over the role of windfall sites in the Local Plan.
