Representation Summary:

Vision and Objectives
The vision to the end of the plan period, which we assume is 2040 as this is not stated in the vision, is overly
long and needs to be refined.
Paragraph 15 of the NPPF requires succinct and up-to-date plans that provide a positive vision for the future
of each area; a framework for addressing housing needs and other economic, social and environmental
priorities; and a platform for local people to shape their surroundings. More should be made of local
distinctiveness in the vision for the Borough in 20 plus years from now.
We would expect to see inclusion of provision of new homes for all including the provision of affordable
homes within the vision.
