Representation Summary:

Policy HOU2 (housing density, type and accessibility)
3.48 IM Land agree that a range of types and sizes of accommodation are needed, this is
reflected in the Councils’ Housing Market Assessment (March 2021). Notwithstanding
this, any housing mix should be agreed based on the most recently available
information at the point an application is determined, this is rightly acknowledged by
the policy.
3.49 Part 4 of the policy is also welcomed and the recognition that a site’s density can be
lower than the guidelines set by the policy is it is necessary to reflect local
distinctiveness. The Vision Document for land at Queslett Road, Walsall demonstrates
how the surrounding context has influenced our proposals for the site.
