Issues and Options for the Ipswich Local Plan Review

Respondent: Alice Martin

Representation Summary:

totally dependent on the scheme. the winerack building is going to be almost totally funded by public money, and because of this there should be no reason for the developer to skimp on affordable housing. if there are very important sites that have a great impact on tourism for example then a reduction in affordable housing should be looked at.

Issues and Options for the Ipswich Local Plan Review

Received: 30/10/2017

Respondent: Home Builders Federation Ltd (HBF)

Representation Summary:

In establishing the appropriate housing mix and level of affordable housing provision, viability and housing needs are a primary concern. We are concerned about question 44: it is impossible to consider mix without viability and the Council can only make a decision based on the evidence it collects. Policies on housing mix, affordability and density must provide certainty about expectations and also a degree of flexibility. When testing plan viability, it is not possible to test all development scenarios. There must be flexibility within the policy to recognise that some development will be made unviable by the Local Plan polices.
