2.4 Policy CSP3 considers in more detail the areas outside the Strategic Centres, including the Neighbourhood Growth Areas.
2.5 The justification states that the purpose of the Neighbourhood Growth Areas is to support the delivery of a constant supply of new housing development, to be able to bring forward these sites quickly and for several sites to be developed simultaneously. The justification also recommends that such sites regardless of ownership are masterplannned as one site to ensure any new infrastructure is planned for. In the case of WAS6 an initial masterplan has already been produced for the whole site, attached as Appendix 2, it therefore can meet these requirements.
2.6 The reasoned justification states that Neighbourhood Growth areas should provide for at least 250 new homes, however WDL suggest that this figure is reduced to 200 new homes to reflect the ability of the sites to be well designed, reflect the local vernacular and allow for appropriate open space and ecological enhancement as per the proposed development of WAS6.
