Local Plan Review: Preferred Approach 2016-2035

Representation ID: 358

Received: 25/01/2019

It is therefore important that the number of dwellings is expressed as minimum, as this allows flexibility for smaller sites, if appropriate, to come forward quickly to fill the inevitable 'delivery gap'. Perhaps this should also be recognised in this policy?
