We are glad that the Council has recognised the issues surrounding housing need arising from outside of the District; this is supported by the NPPG which requires effective strategic planning or cross border growth "from the outset" of Plan preparation.
It is of course desirable for an authority to have assessed the entire housing need that must be
accommodated in its borders before preparing its Plan. The
Council seems to be taking significant measures to positively front up to this potential need. We would like to see adopted, the inclusion of a proactive timetable defining key events that will trigger a review with regards to cross border need.
