The lowering of the housing target is explained by the delivery timescale for the road and the low past completion rates compared with the 280 SEP target. The CS should be providing an ambitous strategic framework. This objective is fulfilled in respect of the districts thinking for employment provision. The plan states at para 8.19 that employment targets will, stimulate provision i.e a very proactive approach. For housing, the CS is precautionary. This is even more important given the affordability issues affecting the district which will increase if the supply of housing is restricted.
