Combination of existing and proposed strategic employment sites will result in a concentration of a large number of jobs; housing development strategy for scale and provision of dwellings needs to be at a quantum and location to promote sustainable development.
Continue the policy of safeguarding land to provide further housing convenient to M54 corridor and southern part of District, close to Strategic Employment Sites.
Targeted review of GB boundaries that identifies sites, and allocation of them, should they be needed if additional housing needs arose or problems arise with delivery.
Proposed housing provision represents only additional 8% above 8,881 dwellings which does not represent sufficient flexibility when 10% of all permissions 'fall out'.
Allocation of a further 400/500 dwellings should be made as a suitable quantum of reserve deliverable land as current proposals do not constitute significant boost to NPPF required housing supply.
Review the capacity of Featherstone (and periphery) to accommodate a proportion of housing needs due to its location to strategic employment sites.
