Received: 07/02/2019

Respondent: Mrs Christina Procter

Representation Summary:

My objection is to section 4.40 "The Council requires affordable housing to be provided on-site, unless there are exceptional circumstances that mean off-site provision or a financial contribution of broadly equivalent value can be robustly justified and the agreed approach contributes to the objective of creating mixed and balanced communities." The should be no exception. All developments MUST offer affordable housing IN that development. We are building houses so people can live in them and have a home. There is NO exception to ensuring that happens.
