Respondent: Mrs Jane Griffiths

Representation Summary:

I think that much of the proposed new housing will be purchased by incomers to the area, mostly more retirees and second home owners. The people that the RLDP wishes to encourage to live nearer their work will buy cheaper property in Denbighshire. This policy could lead to a greater decline in the welsh language and culture of the area.

Our response:

Not accepted. Evidence from new home purchases shows that the majority of new housing is purchased by people who are local to the area.
