Notes
9.1 Policy LP. 29 'Housing Delivery' is the "root" policy for housing delivery, setting out the basic premise
on which sites will be approved. The LP allocates sites which when considered alongside the assumed
contributions from small unidentified sites will ensure an adequate delivery. In order to do so it is necessary
to identify land able to deliver 329 dwellings per year over the life of the LP (2021-2041). To ensure this
level of delivery land with a greater capacity must be identified to allow for some sites not coming forward.
Just as the outgoing Local Plan identified some sites not expected to be completed within its plan period,
so the new LP and its reviews will need to address continuity by making some provision for development
which could occur after 2041. While the LP is almost certain to be reviewed before its end date, it is
considered good practice to provide allocations that meet the entire needs as they are currently identified
up to 2041 in this version of the LP.
