  1. 1. Evidence refresh: Housing Land (SHLAA/SHMA update) 2. Local Plan consultation update

  2. 2008 SHLAA • Evidence, not policy • Required for RSS to test whether Torbay had capacity for 15K homes • Showed that more than 10K homes = environmental & infrastructure stress. • Supported Council’s position that 10K homes right for the Bay.

  3. Why refresh? • Age – 5 years old • Big changes since 2008 e.g. • Market decline • Less demand for flats, more for family homes (supported by policy) • Use of sites for jobs • Protection of tourism bed-spaces • NPPF / New Local Plan policy • Need for SHLAA to be formally refreshed, to meet Local Plan requirements • Need for more forensic analysis of capacity and delivery. • Neighbourhood Forum suggest refresh (in response to Local Plan consultation)

  4. 2013 SHLAA • Forensic review – essential for Local Plan • Review all previous sites • Add NP sites • Add Council sites not previously included • Workshops with NP reps and development industry • Urban site emphasis • Clarity re greenfield sites • Traffic light approach: - Red = site not developable - Amber = site developable, subject to criteria - Green = site deliverable

  5. Pool of sites / land (SHLAA & NP) 10 -15 year - developable sites (LP / NP) 5 – 10 year – viable, developable sites (LP / NP) 0 – 5 year land supply – marketable, deliverable sites (LP) Sites move downstream if sustainability criteria met, including need, infrastructure etc ‘Lock gates’ controlled by Council and community

  6. A Landscape for Success – Consultation • September – November 2012 • Over 1000 comments from 120 separate organisations, groups or individual persons. • Many comments channelled through Neighbourhood Forums • Brief summary on website, detailed summary to follow later this week

  7. Responses • Support for style and general content • Many comments can be taken on board as part of ‘minor’ amendments and editorial changes • Further work: 1. Growth (housing and jobs) 2. Tourism policy 3. Balancing development viability with policy requirements and community needs

  8. Torquay Neighbourhood Forum • ‘Portmanteau’ of comments from Neighbourhood Forum members • Many minor amendments which can be made to the next version • Support for aims of plan and many general policies • Objection to housing growth levels • Support for town centre first approach • Tourism – support reduction of PHAA’s but should go further • Protect community greenspaces • Reduction in HMO’s and poor quality accomodation • Delivery mechanism for jobs

  9. Moving forward - timetable • Now until June - Update key evidence, agree amendments with Council, produce additional detail and reflect emerging Neighbourhood Plans (e.g. SHLAA update and proposals map) • June/Summer 2013 - Consult on Local Plan (‘Submission version’) • September/Autumn 2013 – Submit to Examiner • December/Winter 2013 – Public Examination • Early 2014 - Adopt
