The site boundary previously proposed by my Client extended further to the south, in-line with the rear gardens of properties accessed via Green Acres and the site area was 0.64 ha (refer to Deliverability Questionnaire). However, the DLP boundary is in-line with Bradleigh Close, which reduces the site area to 0.24 ha.

On the larger 0.64 ha site it was estimated that around 24 dwellings could be delivered, which equates to 37.5 units per ha. However, the DLP indicates that 13 dwellings could be delivered on the smaller 0.24 ha, which equates to a density of 54.2 dwellings per ha. The delivery of 13 dwellings on this site might be unrealistic, whilst complementing the character of the area.

It is respectfully requested that the site is extended back to 0.64 ha, which will enable the delivery of more affordable housing and greater benefits.
