Relevant policies (e.g. NPPF para 11) require that the BTNP should allow for sufficient flexibility to accommodate the Local Plan (in its entirety including the potential impact of its required review), and any other emerging changes such as the new 2020 standard method calculation of OAN housing requirement. It should not restrict development in a way that would conflict with those policies including the likely potential for an upward change in need, and it is recommended that reserve sites are allocated in accordance with NPPF para 11 and NPPG para 009 in order to accommodate that required flexibility.
Paragraph 4.5 states “The BTNDP will, therefore, not look to identify further sites or change the growth village envelope. These should remain unchanged and be used to manage any proposed housing growth to 2029” which is in direct conflict with the policy requirements for flexibility described above. This should be deleted or amended to meet basic conditions.
