City Centre Land Supply
Our analysis reveals deliverability issues and constraints on a number of proposed City Centre sites (see schedule for details). There is limited evidence of many of the sites which date in cases back to 2012 being imnplmenmented. We conclude that there are doubts about the following sites – CC1, CC2, CC6, CC10, CC12 CC13, CC15/H, CC16, CC18, CC19, CC21, CC23, CC25, CC28, CC29 with a potential lost capacity of 2,476 units and an overall shortfall against the 7,000 requirment for the City Centre of 4,500 units
Recommendation 1: BMDC need to allocate a developable mix of housing sites to account for the
c.-4,500-unit shortfall in Brownfield City Centre sites alone. In the interests of an effective plan in
accordance with the NPPF.
