Allocations DPD Discussion and Consultation Document

Introduction

Representation ID: 22884

Received: 30/04/2010

Respondent: East of England Local Government Association

Representation Summary:

The East of England LGA recognises that the allocation of sites to meet identified housing, employment, community and environmental needs is ultimately a matter for local determination. To ensure consistency with regional policy objectives, priority should be given to existing brownfield sites and to those sites capable of providing opportunities to deliver high quality, sustainable development.
The inclusion of site options to meet traveller needs up to 2011 is noted. However, the Council is reminded that adopted regional policy sets out a requirement for pitch provision to be made beyond 2011 and the Council should therefore be planning for the delivery of a further 13 pitches during the plan period 2011 and 2021.
