The plan seems to focus on a 'need' for housing an older society. The plan does not appear to consider the needs of the immediate community either now or in the future. If the focus is on an older community then studies should be undertaken on what a community needs (i.e. more community spaces and facilities such as clubs/swimming/exercise etc). More houses means more people so the area will need better infrastructure (transport, schools, doctors, dentists, roads).
