DS6 Level of Housing Growth
Representation ID: 65507
Received: 27/06/2014
Respondent: Rugby Borough Council
Due to the proposed plan period, it appears that there has been some deviation from Warwick's assessed need of 720 dwellings per annum as set out in the Joint Coventry and Warwickshire Strategic Housing Market Assessment (SHMA) where the plan will deliver 714 dwellings per annum.
It is not transparent within either the Local Plan or any other supporting document how the housing target contained within DS6 for the 2011‐29 plan period has been arrived. It is however, understood that a background paper will be produced for the Submission Local Plan which will detail the approach taken. It is acknowledged that through policy DS7 that the authority have identified sufficient sites capable of meeting the assessed need identified (up to 2029), as identified within the Joint SHMA, at table 97.
In consideration of the above, in order to meet the full SHMA assessed need (2011 - 31), Warwick District Council must plan for the delivery of their remaining housing need as identified within the SHMA in the final two years of the SHMA period, through any review of the plan.
