Representation Summary:

The Council have suggested a windfall allowance for 225 dwellings over the last 5 yrs of the plan. The Council do not need to rely on these figures if they undertook a robust assessment of the sites in the SHLAA measured against a robust landscape capacity assessment of potential sites unlikely to have an impact on the ANOB eg Land off Bishop Lane, Robertsbridge (RB1) amongst others. The Council has failed to give " compelling evidence that prevent specific sites being identifid" NPPF

Representation Summary:

Although PPS3 provides for 'windfall' allowance outside the first 10 year period of the Plan, this element of housing land supply cannot be relied upon for the reasons acknowledged in paragraph 7.56 of the PSCS. If only the 'mid-point' of the housing requirement range is to be taken, then the estimated yield from small windfall sites should be discounted. It might be more appropriate to provide for such windfall allowance if the top end of the range in the housing requirement (i.e. 4,100 dwellings net) were to be taken as the overall housing requirement figure for the period 2011-2028.
