Core Strategy Consultation on Strategy Directions 2008

Representation ID: 19927

Received: 27/01/2009

Respondent: Croudace Strategic Ltd

Agent: Charles Planning Associates Limited

Representation Summary:

The need to promote a mix of units across the District is supported in principle, however, the exact mix of units should be informed by an up-to-date Housing Market Assessment and/or Local Housing Needs Survey rather than a stringent requirement set out in an inflexible policy. In this regard, it is not considered necessary to include (a) as a means of achieving housing mix but rather rely on (b) which is more dynamic and responsive to changes in the market.
