Development and Site Allocations (DaSA) Local Plan - Options and Preferred Options

Representation ID: 22318

Received: 17/02/2017

Respondent: Mrs Rosalyn Day

Representation Summary:

I would prefer to see option A in villages where most sites are likely to be small - this is where affordable housing is needed but development may not trigger the requirement for on-site affordable provision. However, option A would likely trigger challenges so option C would be better. However, developers should pay the financial contributions for developments of 6-10 a certain time after building begins (not when all houses finished). Not paying until all houses finished could make developers complete all but one house.
