Radford Semele Neighbourhood Plan - Regulation 16 Submission

Representation ID: 71902

Received: 14/08/2020

Respondent: Mr Oliver Aries

Representation Summary:

Radford semele has accomodated 300+ houses in the current Plan period. This vastly exceeds the numbers allocated to the village by a factor of 3 and exceeds the the Housing Survey which stated the village needed 6. The accomodation of these high numbers should exclude Radford Semele as a growth village for forseable future.
Support mixed sustainable housing in keeping with local area.

I support this Policy in line with Local Plan Policy. Radford Semele has recently accomodated housing numbers far in excess that allocated in the current Local Planfor the village (>X3). The housing needs survey stated that Radford needed 7 houses of mixed types. The local Plan allocated 100 with 40% afordable housing. The village has in fact been allocated 300+. This excess development should exclude Radford Semele as a growth village for the forseable future.
It is important that housing should be in keeping with its surrounding and built to nationally approved specifications, whilst accomodating all sectors of the population which needs housing. I would support housing designed for disabled people and of a sustainable nature utilising energy sources from sustainable sources such as solar, hydrogen etc.
