Representation Summary:

It is important that new residential developments include a mix of unit sizes however, SMPCT considers that the preferred approach should also recognise the site specific circumstances as well as housing need when determining appropriate mix. For example, flatted development would be more appropriate for town centre locations to ensure development is maximised and a critical mass of residential population is achieved to support services and ensure a more vibrant and viable town centre.
