We object to the proposed requirement development sites of over 100 dwellings to deliver 5% self-build and custom-build plots. There is no evidence to justify the requirements for allocating a percentage of plots on sites to provide custom-self build and whether there is a projected need to identify this level of provision. There is also no specific requirement in the PPG (reference 57-025-20210508) to require allocated sites to deliver self and custom build plots.
We are aware that Stratford on Avon District Council produce an annual position statement (December 2024) which sets out the demand for Self-build and Custom Housebuilding. The demand in Warwick District differs to the demand in Stratford District, therefore we object to the blanket approach of 5% for all developments of more than 100 dwellings. We consider that the LPAs should continue with the approach which provides overall support for self-custom build development but leaves it to the housing market to deliver plots when demands arises or allocate specific sites to deliver self and custom built plots to meet identified need where evidenced.
