Harborough Local Plan 2011-2031, Proposed Submission

Representation ID: 6568

Received: 11/11/2017

Respondent: EAST LANGTON and CHURCH LANGTON Parish Council

Legally compliant? Yes

Sound? Yes

Duty to co-operate? Yes

Representation Summary:

East Langton Parish is classed as a Selected Rural Village, one of only three settlements where two villages have been grouped together as a result of walking distances to Church Langton Primary School.

The impact is to increase the housing requirement for the Parish to 30, and East Langton which would otherwise be treated as an unsustainable location for housing is required to take a significant number (although the Local Plan doesn't distinguish between villages in terms of location for housing so it could therefore increase the requirement for Church Langton if no suitable East Langton sites come forward.).
