Does not score positively within any of the sustainability appraisal objectives. It would be inflexible to changes in circumstance and have limited mechanisms to promote brownfield land. The Council has a severe shortfall in its 5 year housing supply, and the allocation of a new settlement of 1000 dwellings would go some way to meet the shortfall. However, there are significant time delays associated with progressing a new settlement that could result in the creation of a further shortfall of development over the plan period and it is unlikely that all dwellings would be built out within the plan period.
