Representation Summary:

Summary: Land east of Highfields Road, Highfields Caldecote (HELAA site 51599)

Object to this policy. Our assessment shows that the Council’s objectively assessed need for jobs across the Plan significantly underestimates likely growth and does not reflect previous trends for the Plan area. We consider that the Plan should provide for additional jobs the effect being that more dwellings are required in the district, to accommodate growth and to limit ‘in commuting’. This is key theme of the development strategy for the Plan area. Therefore, we object to the level of growth proposed by draft Policy S/JH as we do not consider it is well-founded or justified.
