Policy DHG2: Rural Exception Sites

Representation ID: 24155

Received: 06/12/2018

Respondent: Salehurst & Robertsbridge Parish Council

Representation Summary:

Criterion (iv) is to be welcomed but experience elsewhere (see AiRS' work on this subject) would suggest that 'modest' may not be sufficient to get development off the ground in certain cases. AiRS spoke of examples of 70% market and 30% affordable. (Rother District Cllr Joy Hughes attended the Battle presentation by AiRS in October).

Duty to co-operate? Not specified

Representation Summary:

It is difficult to see in the current market for self-build why the floor proposed here should not be 50 rather than 20. As a variant to a number of dwellings used, might it not be better to use a proportion of square meterage of Self- build to the whole of the square meterage of the site?
