Representation ID: 5932

Respondent: Mr Tom Tagg

Representation Summary:

The plan needs to carefully consider this trajectory, especially if major new settlements are part of the plan as these are notoriously slow to start, under-delivering in early years.
A plan with a broad mixture of developments which will occur in different timescales will give BBC the greatest flexibility in managing development and meeting it’s requirements to demonstrate where the next 5 years of growth will come from.
The plan needs to accurately reflect the build-out rates proposed by developers. The errors in the current options for Dennybrook (BBC state 2,500 houses by 2040, the developer states 5,150 by 2040 and 10,800 by 2050) must be corrected.
