Background / Decision Summary: There is a statutory duty to monitor the Council’s development plan and to publish an annual monitoring on at least a yearly basis. Additionally, the National Planning Policy Framework requires local planning authorities to annually publish its supply of deliverable housing sites that is expects to come forward over the next 5 years. The information collected as part of the Strategic Planning Policy team’s ongoing monitoring has fed into the calculation of housing land supply. The measure of land supply is material to decisions on planning applications for new residential development in the City.
The latest monitoring work for the year 2023/2024 has fed into the following reports: - Housing Land Supply Position Statement - Housing Monitoring Update May 2024; and, - Windfall Paper Update May 2024
Previous publications of the Housing Monitoring Report are available via our Development Plan Monitoring webpage.

Options Considered:
Option A- publish reports on housing land supply and associated monitoring.
Option B – do not publish a housing land supply figure or associated monitoring reports. |
||||||||||||||||
Options Rejected: Option B rejected on the basis the Council would not fulfil its duty to publish information that it is required to monitor. Such an approach would conflict with the spirit of operating a transparent basis for planning decisions that the NPPF requires. |
||||||||||||||||
Consultation Process: All agents / landowners of sites identified in the land supply have been contacted and asked to provide information about delivery and completion expectations. |
