We object to the policy that requires all new housing must meet Lifetime Home standards. We would agree that a percentage of new housing development going forward should achieve such standard but it is unduly onerous to require a 100% provision.
Whilst it is acknowledged that some residents may wish to remain and adapt homes to meet different arising needs that will not be the case for all residents. The Policy is therefore unduly onerous.
