Modification includes additional housing provision, an allowance of 1,134 dwellings from windfall sites coming forward over the plan period and a small urban site allowance.
1,134 windfall allowance represents considerable source of future housing supply - should be converted into positive allocations. Additional capacity exists within the Growth Villages and in particular at Radford Semele. Given the need to boost supply of housing land, should make positive allocations, consistent with NPPF, rather than relying on unidentified potential source of supply.
Should additional sites come forward, would be consistent with flexible plan and NPPF and does not need specific allowance.
