The HBF is concerned that the first three options either relate or are based on the previous LDP Settlement Hierarchy which has not delivered the homes required to meet the identified need of the current plan.
The HBF suggests that although we may not agree with the wording that describes the options either options 3 or 5 offer the largest number of settlements and thus the greatest opportunity increasing the chances of meeting the demands of the authority with regard to housing delivery.

Agreed that the current LDP has not delivered the level of housing required within the plan, but it is not accepted that the settlement hierarchy itself is the reason for this.
