Members’ discussion
Members welcomed progress, unchanged affordable housing, increased green space and homes suitable for families, and considered the revised mix reasonable for changing needs.
“Members were pleased to see that the development was progressing and that despite the reduction in overall numbers, the amount of affordable housing was unchanged; however it was considered reasonable to amend the housing mix in response to changing market needs. The increased green space was welcomed, as was the proposal to build more homes suitable for families.”
