We object to the inclusion of a sentence that states 'this target (200 new dwellings per annum) will be achieved through the delivery of identifiable development sites, when there is such a heavy reliance on non identified windfall sites.
An over reliance on windfall sites renders the plan unjustified because it is not the most appropriate strategy when considered against the reasonable alternatives.
Land at Breadsell Lane should be allocated for housing development instead of the over reliance on unknown sites.

Rother District Council supports the level of housing likely to come forward over the plan period. It is noted that this modification has to be read in conjunction with the minor modifications which introduce the words 'at least' in Policy DS1, and which allows for further, currently unidentified sites, to come forward. This is also supported.

The target for Annual Housing Completions should be between 363 (Howmanyhomes) and 440 (East Sussex County Council)not the pitiful 200 proposed by the Council.
This is a deliberate strategy to circumvent 'The presumption in favour of development' contained within the National Planning Policy Framework by restricting the number of Allocations of Housing Development Sites required thus enabling future Planning Applications on other land to be refused as being a material deviation from the Local Plan.
As such, perfectly suitable housing development sites are currently being excluded by the Council citing generalised but non-existent boundary and environmental constraints.
