Hastings Local Development Framework - Core Strategy Informal Consultaton 27 June - 8 August 2011

Representation ID: 2089

Received: 08/08/2011

Representation Summary:

The lowering of the threshold for the provision of affordable housing to reflect the priority to increasing supply is noted.

In view of the clear need for economic regeneration, as recognised by the shared vision for greater prosperity for Hastings and Bexhill, some concern is expressed regarding the precedence given to affordable housing over other types of planning contributions, as this may be at the expense of securing funding towards employment generation.
