Object to allowing market housing in villages and hamlets, but support policy to provide affordable housing restricted in perpetuity to residents who have grown up in the area. This needs to be rented as market housing in the District's villages will never be 'affordable' in terms of within the price range for lower-income households.

Support policy which positively encourages provision of jobs in rural communities.
Quite possible that as price of fuel rises, it will become less desirable to live in the countryside, and that the value of rural property will decline and therefore become more affordable for local people.
