-It is considered that given the Council's own acknowledgement that the housing target is likely to be altered as a result of ongoing work in the conjoined SHMA that this consultation is both:
i) Premature in advance of the conclusions of both the SHMA being established and tested through examination and housing need being defined.
ii) Is also premature in the context of dismissing villages such as Norton Lindsey as providing any potential for development growth during the plan period.

-Norton Lindsey is a rural village of sufficient size and with sufficient facilities to accommodate some growth. The provision of new development would assist in rebalancing the demographics.

-The approach to the identification of villages for rural growth is not robust and is premature ahead of a clear identification of an objectively assessed housing need.
-The methodology used for identifying the different scale and "sustainability" of villages is questioned, as is the nominal "cut-off" point between second-tier villages and "small and feeder villages".
-The overall housing target figure does not meet the Council's objectively assessed need.
