Centaur Homes support Hampton Magna being identified as a Growth Village,
however, due to the acknowledged limited supply of sites in urban areas, this Policy should make a provision for development to be allowed to occur in locations adjacent to existing settlement boundaries.This Policy provides an opportunity for development to occur on brownfield sites adjacent to settlement boundaries, not only to re-use redundant or disused buildings,but to re-use the whole site to enhance the local environment

The Policy could be interpreted to seek higher levels of affordable
housing and, therefore, lacks any precision or certainty for applicants. In accordance with the SHMA, the amount of affordable housing required in the
District is broadly proportionate to 40% of the total housing need, excluding any
requirement that arises assisting adjacent authorities with their housing need. The
insertion of "up to 40%" merely reflects the need for flexibility with proposals
involving an odd number of houses.

Centaur Homes object to parts a and b of this policy. Part a should promote developments for all.Fuel poverty is connected to household income and local authorities should promote energy efficient housing across the whole market. It is considered that this issue can be best addressed through Building Regulations.

Centaur Homes object to this policy. As part of the Housing Review, in March 2014
Central government has stated their intention to scrap the Code for Sustainable
Homes. Instead the aims of the scheme will be placed into the Building Regulations and become part of this process. Therefore, this policy will soon become unmanageable and will not comply with paragraph 154 of the Framework

Centaur Homes support that development should be directed away from areas at
flood risk. However, a large amount of the policy is superfluous as it repeats national policy from the Framework and does not need to be duplicated.

Duty to co-operate? No

Centaur Homes object to this policy. As set out above, the Code for Sustainable
Homes is due to be scrapped and water conservation measures will form part of
Building Regulations. These matters do not need to be resolved as part of the
planning process.

Centaur Homes object to part h of the policy. This part does not affect the general
thrust of the policy, which is landscape character. Additionally the financial viability of an agricultural unit is not a planning matter.
