SA should assess effects of 13,550 homes against evidence illustrating 10,434 are needed. SA should consider effects of multiple starts at the Garden Suburb. Conclusions of CBRE traffic assessment should be considered. SA should assess implications of Table 8B stating that initial works at the Country Park are dependent upon occupation of 500 dwellings at Henley Gate and should take account of the CBRE HRA stating the Country Park should be delivered before occupation of the first dwelling. The effect on redevelopment through removal of the brownfield land target and multiple starts at the Garden Suburb should be assessed.

SA is not fit for purpose. The adopted CS allows a phased approach to development of the Northern Fringe/IGS and its SA judged multiple starts as unsustainable. The revised CS now allows multi-site development across the NF. A detailed examination of the implications must be included in the new SA and a full critique of the rationale behind the proposed changes. With multiple starts, if one developer hits financial problems, the added burden on remaining developers may make their operation unviable and halt delivery. This would blight the land. What contingency is there if market forces impact on infrastructure delivery?

The adopted CS allows for a phased approach to development of the NF. Its SA judged multiple starts as unsustainable. However, the revised CS now allows simultaneous multi-site development across the NF without locational restrictions. A detailed examination of the implications of this change must be included in the new SA and a full critique of the rationale. Multiple starts may pose the risk that if a developer/landowner hits financial problems, the added burden [of infrastructure provision] falls on remaining landowners/developers, making their operation unviable and halting delivery, resulting in blight. Grampian Conditions are not mentioned within the Scoping report.
