Section 2.13 outlines the Council’s strategic objectives, which will be used to ensure that the overall spatial vision for the District is achieved. It is noted that the second objective is to “ensure that the District’s requirements for housing, business and commerce are met in full in sustainable locations”. Given the clear remit from the Government that the 20 largest urban areas must provide a 35% uplift to the minimum housing requirement, and the Council’s decision to decline to do so, means that they will not be meeting the District’s housing requirements in full.
