Q-H1-1: The HEDNA is proposing that we move away from an approach where future household needs are based on the 2014-based household projections towards a trend-based approach. Do you think that the HEDNA evidence provides a reasonable basis for identifying future levels of housing need across South Warwickshire?

Yes

Q-H1-2: If your answer to H1-1 is No, what would be a more appropriate approach to calculating future housing needs for this Local Plan?

No answer given

Q-H2-1: What is the best way to significantly increase the supply of affordable housing across South Warwickshire?

The basis on which affordable housing is delivered must be clearly evidence based so the best option is dependent upon the evidence and the spatial distribution of housing. However, in general terms it is likely that the Plan area is too broad for a one policy fits all approach and the HEDNA evidence clearly supports this suggesting a higher level of need in Warwick District than Stratford. We consider a more localised approach would be too complex to assess and administer and therefore option 2b is likely to deliver the right balance.

Option H2-2a: A single South Warwickshire wide affordable housing requirement

selected

Option H2-2b: Separate affordable housing requirements for Stratford-on-Avon and Warwick Districts

selected

Option H2-2c: A more localised approach with separate affordable housing requirements for different localities across South Warwickshire

selected

Q-H2-3: How should South Warwickshire best address the specialist needs for older people?

We would support a policy addressing the specialist needs for older people in principle subject to a robust evidence base demonstrating need.

Q-H4-1: Do you agree with the approach of contributing to meeting the Birmingham and Black Country HMA shortfall to 2031 on the identified sites in Stratford-on-Avon District?

Yes

Q-H4-2: Please add any comments you wish to make about the scale of the shortfall from the Birmingham and Black Country HMA that South Warwickshire should accommodate within the South Warwickshire Local Plan

The unmet needs arising from within Birmingham should be agreed via a Memorandum of Understanding and allocations made to meet the unmet needs within Part 1 of the Local Plan dealing with strategic policies.

Q-H4-3: If we are required to meet housing shortfalls from outside of South Warwickshire, how best and where should we accommodate such shortfalls?

We agree that South Warwickshire needs to contribute towards meeting the housing needs of the Coventry and the Birmingham and Black Country HMA. A joined-up approach is required by all the Local Planning Authorities to agree the scale of shortfall to be met by each LPA. Spatially this need should be located as close to the authority where the need arises, or at the very least, in sustainable locations that are accessible to where the need arises. The development around the south of Warwick is a good example of how Warwick District Council has sought to meet the needs arising from Coventry close to Coventry. It may not always be practical to do that, for other reasons, but it would be in appropriate and unsustainable to locate the needs of neighbouring authorities far away from where those needs arise.

Q-H7: Please add any comments you wish to make about delivering homes in South Warwickshire

Issue H3: Providing the right size of homes - We accept option H3c. However, if the Council does decide to adopt space standards this must be a standard policy to ensure a level playing field and be evidenced and justified.

Q-C3.1: Do you think we should develop a carbon offsetting approach to new developments where it is demonstrated that it is not possible to achieve net carbon zero requirements on site?

Yes

Q-C3.2: Do you have any proposals for projects/schemes within South Warwickshire in which developer (or local business) offset payments could be invested to secure emissions removals or reductions?

None at present.

Q-C3.3: Please add any comments you wish to make about renewable energy generation or carbon sequestration in South Warwickshire

We support a carbon offsetting approach to new developments where it is not possible to achieve net carbon zero requirements on site, provided that any such approach is consistent with national policy. AC Lloyd as a business is fully committed to helping to reduce its carbon footprint by developing in sustainable locations and increasingly more energy efficient buildings together with renewable energy technologies at the heart of our current product development.

No answer given
