Paper 2: Strategic Growth and Spatial Distribution Options
Option 1
Representation ID: 27332
Received: 25/01/2019
Respondent: Home Builders Federation Ltd
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.
See scanned representation.
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.
No

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.

Option 4
Representation ID: 27335
Received: 25/01/2019
Respondent: Home Builders Federation Ltd
Option 4 is based on the Wales Spatial Plan which although technically not yet replaced was adopted in 2004 and last updated in 2008. It will shortly be replaced by the NDF and possibly a SDP for North Wales, although the timings of these new plans do not align with the replacement Conway LDP it does not seem appropriate to base a plan on principles established by such an old plan.
See scanned representation.
Agreed that the WSP now has limited weight however with NDF/SDPs yet to be adopted it remains the only regional/national plan for Wales. Despite its age, some of the principles behind it still have relevance.

Option 5
Representation ID: 27336
Received: 25/01/2019
Respondent: Home Builders Federation Ltd
Option 5 is a hybrid of earlier options which we have commented on above.
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.

Question 2: Are there any other settlement hierarchy options you would like to put forward?
Representation ID: 27337
Received: 25/01/2019
Respondent: Home Builders Federation Ltd
The HBF do not wish to put forward any other specific settlement hierarchy, but would suggest that the Council needs to consider a hybrid option of 3 and 5 with the added consideration of market demand which should take account of where people would like to live.

Question 3: Do you agree with the figures and rationale for Growth Option 1?
Representation ID: 27338
Received: 25/01/2019
Respondent: Home Builders Federation Ltd
The HBF do not agree with the figure and consider that it would result in a housing requirement figure that would not deliver the housing growth needed to not only support the economic aspirations of the Council but also deliver the much needed affordable housing.
