Draft Bradford District Local Plan - Preferred Options (Regulation 18) February 2021
Representation ID: 21642
Received: 24/03/2021
Respondent: Mrs Elizabeth Nancy Briggs
Agent: Johnson Mowat
Representation Summary:
Housing Need and Requirement
Our clients have concerns with the Draft Plan’s strategic approach to the overall housing requirement and the Council’s chosen approach of dismissing the Government requirement of a 35% uplift to the housing requirement (Policy SP8).
It is considered at the very least, the 35% uplift as required by the Government should be applied to the overall housing requirement, resulting in an annual requirement of 2,300 dwellings per annum, rather than the Council’s preferred approach of 1,704 dwellings per annum.
