Thakeham objects to the requirement for: “2% of market units provided on strategic scale housing sites should be self/custom build”. Requirements on relatively small sites creates undesirable piecemeal provision with potential feasibility and deliverability issues at implementation stage. Would suggest a focussed provision on sites of 500 or more dwellings represents a more acceptable approach, ensuring effective and comprehensive delivery. To ensure Policy is suitably justified, CDC should consider alternative approaches to increasing supply of self-build plots as referenced in PPG.
