We have made comments on the following:
- the percentage of Social Rent should be reduced further to enable the mix to achieve the requirements of NPPF paragraph 64.
- he proposed housing mix table should be removed from page 19 and the ‘Housing Types and Sizes’ section of the SPD should be amended to ‘encourage’ the development of more two and three bed affordable dwellings.
- the requirement for 5% of affordable rented properties to be bungalows should be removed.
- clarity is sought on the requirement for the proposed Starter Home restrictions.
