Support, however, where significant regeneration/community gain can emerge from new development, other standards (notably social housing standards) may need to be treated on a site specific basis.

Number of houses to be built in towns on brown field or windfall sites is now lower and more robust. Earlier figure would result in poor design/ excessive back garden development.
Future residential development should primarily be family houses with garden, not flats. Support proposal to gather evidence and raise % of affordable dwellings to 50%, lowering threshold for scheme. Within allocation of affordable houses should be preponderance of houses available for rent from RSL. There is need for affordable housing in villlages.
In favour of 'pepper-potting' of affordable housing in new schemes and against socially damaging separation of affordable housing from market priced housing.
WDC should be allowed to resume building council houses.

Affordable housing means low quality ,hidh density,badly planned ,maximum profit for the major housing companies.No thought has been given to the effect this will have on the local people.
