Underlying consistency with the wording and layout of the overall Preferred Options Report (November 2021) which created confusion and clarity. Unusual approach to the public consultation system which lead to unclear community engagement, The existing adopted Local Plan comprised of the Core Strategy (adopted in 2012) an the Site Allocations Document (adopted in 2018) which seeks to deliver the spatial planning framework for the future distribution of new development across the South Staffordshire District within the Local Plan Review 2021. Therefore, concerns arise that South Staffordshire Council's Core Strategy and Site Allocations which are being used for the new Local Plan Review are based on out of date data. Any initial work on the plan preparation for the Council's emerging Local Plan Review was undertaken pre-Covid19 Pandemic which implicates the Local Plan Review viability and deliverability. The future recession can impact on the community within South Staffordshire which will implicate the planning policies therefore the foundation for the draft of the preferred options are based on out- of - date data.
