The Core Strategy may beneficially include a policy requiring development to conserve and enhance natural, built and historic environment quality, taking account of site-specific considerations and other benefits outweighing potential development impacts.
Change will be required to meet sustained growth and regeneration objectives. The Strategy should identify this relationship to avoid development delays.
Some developments may appropriately include energy conservation/generation methods beyond Building Regulation requirements, provided the development is not rendered unviable. The Strategy should encourage but not require the inclusion of such technologies to avoid delay in housing delivery.
