S5.2 New settlements should PROBABLY be part of the strategy

S6 – Review of GREENBELT policies – YOU DO NOT ASK ANY OPINION? Why not? – the GB policy has probably been the biggest blight on WDC and (presumably SDC) areas over the last few local plan periods. Review of GB policy – locally and nationally is well overdue if our non-GB areas are to survive the housing numbers which will seemingly be imposed on our areas. NOW is the time to make the change!

Limit of 10 dwellings per site

S8.1 There should probably be a THRESHOLD approach to development outside the chosen GROWTH STRATEGY, however it should have some flexibility built in where really appropriate sites, welcomed by the community/NDP come forward at a later date, beyond any adoption of the SWLP.

S9 - Save ALL existing boundaries unless change is actively driven by their communities.

No

NO, we do not believe that HEDNA evidence provides a reasonable basis for employment (OR HOUSING NEED!) across SW. It takes no notice of the changes in work patterns brought on by improved technology and post-pandemic changes, principally to remote/hub working and WFH. Such changes are likely to be permanent, should be fully recognised and actively encouraged. Beyond that full attention should be paid to the CPRE analysis of the HEDNA and the earlier criticisms raised by Ray Bullen of BTPC should be revisited in order to come up with more realistic demands for employment and consequential housing need.
