Q6. Which of the identified strategy options do you consider should be taken forward in the Plan?

Representation ID: 39587

Received: 22/09/2021

Respondent: Walden Land and Property Ltd

Agent: mr ian beatwell

Representation Summary:

4 – A balanced approach to growth and delivery seems the most logical, as by allocating different sized developments it will ensure housing and infrastructure delivery throughout the whole plan period. Different sized sites will also serve different community needs. For example, smaller urban extensions will absorb some of the community housing need in areas where services are already provided. Larger growth areas which require their own infrastructure will provide more homes, with a larger number of affordable dwellings, but will only be available for completion in the later stages of the plan period due to their strategic size.
