Support the explicit reference to the Northern Fringe in this chapter through policy CS10, as a key source of housing land. Crest welcomes updates to ensure consistency with the NPPF; supports the principles that underpin the strategy; and welcomes recognition that a high amount of growth is needed. Crest supports in principle the intentions to ensure that new development complies with high standards of environment and sustainability, and agrees that the plan should not be prescriptive about how developments should meet these targets. However flood risk must be properly understood and especially the consequences of delay to the barrier's delivery.
