Developments should achieve a minimum net density of 35 dwellings per hectare unless site specific considerations indicate otherwise under Policy HO2.

This minimum net density is considered by Persimmon to be reasonable and justified for the majority of new housing developments. Reference within the policy to site specific considerations and local area characteristics is welcomed to ensure that the policy does not undermine the development of sites which cannot, by virtue of site specific constraints, achieve
these densities but continue to encourage the best and most efficient use of land relative to local circumstances.
