Large allocations put the delivery of majority of housing requirement in hands of large developers who could dictate supply. Strategy should deliver more growth around the edge of settlements in sustainable and deliverable locations. Codsall Wood is ideal for this more balanced and national GB policy consistent approach.
Strategy should provide for further GB release as safeguarded land within higher tier settlements to meet requirements post-2038 in accordance with NPPF Paragraph 140.
Disagree with the flawed approach to not considering Tier 4 settlements for development. Sites less than 1ha in size should be included to accord with NPPF Paragraph 69.
Infrastructure related needs should only be one consideration of the site selection strategy and be supplemented by all material considerations.
