Although Objective 3 reduces the number of new homes, it remains an ambitious delivery target, which will only be met through a combination of brownfield and greenfield development. The plan needs to be sufficiently flexible to not unnecessarily restrict when these sites can come forward. Regarding Objective 4, Crest would welcome the inclusion on the key diagram of the 3 planned centres at the Northern Fringe. It is important to present a full picture of the spatial distribution and hierarchy of existing and planned centres. In Objective 7, the flood barrier should be a requirement rather than a 'should have'.
