We believe the Plan should incorporate flexibility to address potential delays in site development, particularly with larger strategic sites. South Warwickshire faces significant affordable housing challenges, with high prices and many households unable to afford private rentals. The Housing and Economic Needs Assessment indicates a requirement for 1,398 affordable homes per annum across the area. If the proposed housing need of 2,188 dpa is to be met, around 64% must be affordable, which seems unviable. We recommend an uplift in housing need to ensure affordable housing delivery. An economic uplift appears unnecessary at this time but should be kept under review.
