olicy DM5(S) requires developments of +100 dwellings to include plots for self and custom build housing, with the amount subject to negotiation. It is agreed that the amount of self and custom build plots provided should be subject to negotiation and assessed on a site by site basis. The Southill Estate owns land for two draft allocation, one for residential development (Policy HOU 5) and the other for a science and innovation park (Policy EMP 5). There is an inter-relationship between the two developments, with the delivery of the economic benefits associated with the science and innovation park supported by the delivery of residential development. There may need to be some flexibility about the delivery of self and custom build plots in this case. These issues would be addressed at masterplan and planning application stage.
