Allocations DPD Discussion and Consultation Document

Representation ID: 18407

Received: 30/04/2010

Respondent: Mrs Fiona Jury

Representation Summary:

We do not support a number of the options identified for strategic housing development in the Allocations DPD for reasons relating to deliverability/developability, and consequently consider that the District's strategic housing requirement will not be met by the Submission version of the Core Strategy. The redevelopment of a number of the sites, specifically the existing employment locations, would be highly unsustainable, and is unjustified. The preferred sites and alternative options that have been suggested have not been assessed consistently against the Council's SHLAA criteria; neither is there any comparative assessment.
