Respondent: Pocket Living

Representation Summary:

The policy objective to deliver higher densities on sites with good accessibility is strongly supported. This policy should however specifically reference the need to deliver smaller unit sizes, such as 1 bedroom 1 person homes, in these locations.
Sites located in Town Centes and/ or close to transport interchanges are highly suited to increased densities of housing and people. They are typically however less suited to families. The delivery of smaller unit sizes, such as 1 bedroom 1 person homes, will therefore be important for maximising housing density on these sites.
