Local Plan Review: Preferred Approach 2016-2035

Representation ID: 3416

Received: 06/02/2019

Respondent: Meadows Partnership

Agent: Genesis Town Planning

Representation Summary:

The Assessment confirms OAN is capped at 40% above the adopted housing requirement. The Local Plan was adopted on the basis of approximately 435 dpa. Capping the OAN to 40% above the adopted figure gives Chichester a housing need of 609 dpa.
Whilst we understand the need assessment has been carried out in accordance with the standard method set out in PPG we suggest it has potential flaws as the 435dpa in the adopted plan already fails to meet need. It should also consider the un-met needs of other adjoining authorities not just the National Park.
