Representation Summary:
The projected 350 houses per year is over ambitious and assuming four developers on site it is considered more likely to be about 120 a year (30 each). There is also no knowledge of any viability testing with infrastructure and facilities making it potentially unviable. As a result this could mean the Council's plan is unable to deliver the foreseen housing need due to over reliance on one large site. The Plan is therefore not justifed (not the most appropriate strategy) , effective (not deliverable) or consistent with the NPPF.
