Agent: Marrons Planning

Representation Summary:

The Consortium support the Council's approach to the provision of new housing being specified as a minimum figure and identifying a housing supply over and above the District's own needs to address unforeseen circumstances and unmet needs elsewhere. The Settlement Hierarchy is the most appropriate strategy to deliver growth co-locating strategic housing and economic development in those areas with the greatest propensity to give access to services and facilities by sustainable modes of transport, aligned with the investment strategies of the sub-regional economic bodies.
