Decision details

To agree the Council's response to a technical shortfall in 5-year housing land supply.

The Northstowe and New Communities Portfolio Holder agreed that the appropriate method of calculating 5-year housing land supply pending the completion of the Local Development Framework review is against the draft East of England Plan >2031 (the review of the East of England Plan 2008 to 2031) housing target (Option 1), without making up any residual shortfall against the Core Strategy target for the period to 2016, and that this be a material consideration for planning decisions pending the completion of the Local Plan review.
