The Core Strategy should ensures that there is flexibility to enable the delivery of housing across the District at a sustainable rate in line with the South East Plan annual requirement.

The Council's continual reliance on a single large-scale development is wholly dependent on the delivery of major infrastructure. The Core Strategy should contain sufficient flexibility to enable the delivery of other development sites to meet any shortfall against the minimum housing requirement. Need for the Core Strategy to enable delivery from other short / medium term sites.

The availability of brownfield sites, will likely to reduce in the short term. Small scale greenfield sites should be promoted, which generally have lower development costs, in the early part of the plan period.
