Chichester Local Plan 2021 - 2039: Proposed Submission

Representation ID: 4563

Received: 16/03/2023

Respondent: Gladman Developments Ltd

Representation Summary:

In principle, Gladman support the intentions of the above policy as this is in line with Government thinking to provide opportunities for custom and self-build housing. We are encouraged to see that the Council is opting for a 12-month marketing period before plots may be built out as conventional market housing. It is generally accepted that a period of 12 months is normally required in Local Plans where plots can revert back to the developer for alternative forms of housing.
