Preferred Options Core Strategy and Policies Development Plan Document (DPD) Review
Representation ID: 26080
Received: 13/03/2019
Respondent: Mersea Homes Limited
Agent: Mr Arwel Owen
Representation Summary:
Despite clear evidence submitted through the development management process, unrealistic policy expectations remain under CS10. In particular, the Council's stance on affordable housing provision is untenable given the evidence available to it by virtue of the applications before it. Recognising the provisions of paragraph 64 of the NPPF (2019)), consideration should be given to a 10% threshold with additional provision secured where viability provides. We remain concerned that Policy CS10 remains prescriptive in terms of the and use budget set out, and that such detail is unnecessary in Local Plan policy.
