Allocations DPD Discussion and Consultation Document

Representation ID: 17967

Received: 14/04/2010

Respondent: Barratt Eastern Counties

Agent: Kember Loudon Williams Ltd

Representation Summary:

The first paragraph of this Chapter is unsound in that it does not reflect Regional Spatial Strategy. It does not explain that the 3,790 dwellings to 2021 are minimum requirements as set out at Policy H1 of East of England Plan 2008 (EEP 2008). This is an important statement to make in the site allocations document because it sets the context for how future sites are delivered. The use of the phrase 'approximate average' is not a policy statement used in the EEP 2008 and should be deleted. Insert reference to the minimum requirement.
