Notes
The Council’s new local housing need (LHN) figure has increased significantly under the revised standard methodology (December 2024) to 382 dwellings per annum, meaning that the Council has been forced to ‘pause’ progress on the recently publicly consulted Regulation 19 draft Local Plan which set out a spatial strategy to deliver 240 dwellings per annum (142 dwellings per annum less than the new LHN figure).
