1. Introduction

1.1 Knowsley’s Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment (SHLAA) undertakes a review of housing land availability and provides an estimation of when housing land is likely to come forward for development. The SHLAA also assists in formulating the Council’s policies relating to the delivery of new housing. However, the SHLAA itself does not represent a statement of Council policy. Whilst the SHLAA will inform the Local Plan process, it is for the Local Plan: Core Strategy and Local Plan: Site Allocations and Development Policies documents to determine which sites come forward for residential development and by what timescale.

Figure 1.1: The Knowsley Local Plan and supporting documents1

1.2 The inclusion of sites within this study should not therefore be taken to imply that they will be allocated for development or that the Council will necessarily consider planning applications favourably.

1.3 Knowsley’s first SHLAA was published in March 2010. The Study was developed using a combination of in-house work by Knowsley Council officers and subsequent work

1 The contents of figure 1.1 are subject to potential change. In particular, it is uncertain whether any Neighbourhood Plans will be progressed as no requests have been received to date from qualifying community bodies to prepare these under the powers in the Localism Act. The Council has yet to determine whether to implement a Community Infrastructure Levy Charging Schedule.

by independent consultants, White Young Green (WYG). The first SHLAA has a base date, and represented the supply position at 1st April 2008. The first SHLAA is available to view online at www.knowsley.gov/LocalPlan.

1.4 The Council published its 1st annual update to the SHLAA in June 2011 which has a base date of 1st April 2010.

1.5 This report represents the Council’s 2nd update to the SHLAA and has a base date of 1st April 2011. This SHLAA updated an estimated supply position from 1st April 2012.

1.6 The SHLAA updates have been developed “in-house” by Knowsley Council using a methodology consistent with the first SHLAA and similar to that used by Sefton and West Lancashire Councils in undertaking their respective SHLAA updates. This SHLAA update is consistent with national guidance2 relating to SHLAA preparation published by the Department for Communities and Local Government (CLG) and the National Planning Policy Framework3

1.7 The findings of this Study will be used to underpin the Local Plan: Core Strategy “Publication of Submission” document and supporting documents such as the emerging “Planning for Housing Growth” Technical Report and Knowsley and Sefton Green Belt Study: Final Knowsley Report.

1.8 In accordance with CLG guidance, Knowsley has monitored and reviewed its SHLAA on a regular basis. This process has been undertaken with engagement with neighbouring authorities, developers and other stakeholders via the Housing Market Partnership (HMP) and wider public consultation.

1.9 A further update of the SHLAA will be published in 2013, with a base date of 1st April 2013.

2 Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment: Practice Guidance, (CLG, 2007) 3 National Planning Policy Framework (CLG, 2012)

2. National and sub-regional context

2.1 At the national level, the Government has identified the concept of “growth” as its top priority. Through the Growth Agenda4 there is an aspiration to achieve strong, sustainable and balanced growth. It is envisaged this will be achieved by attracting inward investment and economic growth, alongside the removal of unnecessary barriers to economic growth. This is being implemented through initiatives such as the introduction of Enterprise Zones; the release of public sector land to encourage new homes and jobs; and support for the development of infrastructure.

2.2 The Government has replaced the previous series of Planning Policy Guidance (PPGs) notes and Planning Policy Statements (PPSs)5 with a consolidated National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF), which was published in March 2012

2.3 The NPPF is in line with the Government’s growth agenda aims to promote sustainable growth through a more simplified planning system. It sets out a presumption in favour of sustainable development and also reaffirms the Government’s commitment to the delivery of “zero carbon” homes by 2016. The NPPF also carries forward the requirement for Local Plans6 to be drawn up over a 15- year time frame and take account of longer term requirements.

2.4 The NPPF also states (in paragraph 159) that local planning authorities should:

“… prepare a Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment to establish realistic assumptions about the availability, suitability and the likely economic viability of land to meet the identified need for housing over the plan period”.

2.5 The NPPF adds (footnote 11) that to be considered deliverable,

“sites should be available now, offer a suitable location for development now, and be achievable with a realistic prospect that housing will be delivered on the site within five years and in particular that development of the site is viable. Sites with planning permission should be considered deliverable until planning permission expires, unless there is clear evidence that schemes will not be implemented within five years, for example they will not be viable, there is no longer a demand for the type of units or sites have long term phasing plans.

4 The Plan for Growth (HM Treasury 2011) 5 Although PPS 3: Housing has been cancelled by the introduction of the NPPF, the SHLAA Practice Guidance remains extant. 6 Local Plans were formerly known as Local Development Frameworks (LDFs) as required by the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act (2004)

2.6 The NPPF additionally requires authorities to add a variable amount of 5% or 20% to the requirement for a 5-year deliverable land supply. The amount applied is based on past delivery rates against the authorities housing target.

2.7 The Regional Spatial Strategy (RSS) for the North West7 currently provides the regional tier of Knowsley’s development plan. In the context of housing, the RSS sets out policies to be considered at the local level and Knowsley’s housing target which equates to 450 per annum up to 2021 (the end of the plan period for the RSS).

2.8 The Government has been clear in its intention to abolish Regional Spatial Strategies. Although Regional Strategies remain part of the development plan until they are abolished by Order using powers in the Localism Act, it is clearly the Government’s intention to revoke the strategies, subject to the outcome of the environment assessments currently being undertaken.

2.9 The proposed revocation of Regional strategies is likely to leave policy voids, which will need to be addressed at the local level. Therefore, the Council is currently working on robust policies to establish the level of housing growth required. Knowsley’s “locally derived” housing target will be supported by robust evidence and contained in the emerging Local Plan: Core Strategy.

2.10 The Council published its Core Strategy “Preferred Options” Report in June 2011. The Preferred Options Report outlined that the “preferred target” for housing delivery for the emerging plan period was 450 per annum.

2.11 For the purposes of this SHLAA update, the identified housing supply is considered in the context of the RSS and emerging Core Strategy housing targets.

3. Key changes since publication of the SHLAA 2011 Update (published June 2012)

Apartments and higher density development 3.1 In common with the previous SHLAA reports, a cautious approach has been adopted in relation to the expectations for higher density development coming forward. This ensures the SHLAA does not over-estimate the development capacity of sites it identifies. The majority sites identified by the SHLAA have an applied density of 30 dwellings per hectare (ha), with a limited number of sites having a slightly higher density at 40 dwellings per hectare in appropriate locations or where the site conditions allow. The density assumptions for a limited number of sites has been informed by detailed site design / master planning work which has been shared with the Council. The site appraisals state where this applies.

3.2 Table 4.2 highlights that developments of between 30 – 40 dwellings per hectare generally consist of medium to low density detached or town house development.

Small sites allowance 3.3 The first SHLAA utilised a sample approach for smaller sites (below 0.1 ha), by visiting and assessing 10% of such sites, with the findings from this sample used to calculate the contribution from all smaller sites. The first Study used this approach as it was decided that it was not cost-efficient or methodologically advantageous to visit all sites less than 0.1 ha. However, this approach has not been carried forward for the SHLAA updates as a number of smaller sites have now been excluded and it was therefore possible to appraise all the sites below 0.1ha.

Green Belt “broad locations” for longer term development 3.4 The first SHLAA considered it premature to consider specific sites in the Green Belt for residential development in advance of a comprehensive review of appropriate locations for longer term development. Since completion of the first SHLAA (2010) Sefton and Knowsley Councils have undertaken a joint Green Belt Study using a common methodology. The draft Study undertook a comprehensive assessment of Knowsley’s Green Belt and identified Green Belt locations that might be suitable to meet longer term housing, employment and other needs. The findings of the final Study will support Knowsley’s position in terms of housing and employment growth in the longer term. The draft Study was consulted on for 10 weeks between June and September 2011 alongside the Core Strategy “Preferred Options” Report.

3.5 Once the Council publishes its final report of the Green Belt Study and the Council adopts its Core Strategy any Green Belt “broad locations” identified by the strategy will be included in subsequent updates to the SHLAA. These areas are likely to be

included in the 11 – 15 year category of sites, due to the need to prioritise urban sites and areas of regeneration need.

3.6 The Council’s current timetable indicates that, subject to the examination process, the Core Strategy is likely to be adopted in 2013.

Knowsley Public Sector Land Holdings Review 3.7 The Council has undertaken review of public sector land holdings across the Borough. The review considered all land in public ownership within Knowsley, including amenity, residential and amenity land. In appraising each site the review considered each site’s existing usage, condition, community benefit, development potential and likely future maintenance costs.

3.8 Following the assessment of land through the review, a number of potential sites were identified. Many of these sites were already identified by the first SHLAA, those which were new to the process have been included in this update.

3.9 Previous SHLAA reports have identified the majority of the surplus Council assets, many of which were former school sites and associated playing fields. Due to their former use many were initially included in the 6-10 year category as they were subject to varying levels of constraint. This included, among other matters, the demolition of existing structures, national policy restrictions regarding the disposal of school playing fields and local policy restrictions regarding the provision of outdoor sporting provision.

3.10 Since publication of the SHLAA update in 2011, the Council has undertaken evidence base studies to appraise the quantity of, and requirements for, public open space (POS)8 and outdoor sporting provision9 in the future. These studies have indicated that many of the sites included in the SHLAA are no longer required for another use, and therefore the policy restrictions relating to their use for residential development no longer apply.

3.11 The Council now has a programme in place for applying for Section 7710 approval for the disposal for former sporting sites and has begun the process on a number of sites where this constraint applies. It is anticipated that this process will be complete within 12 months (prior to the end of 2013). For the purposes of this Study it was therefore concluded that this issue would not prevent any site coming forward within a 5 year timeframe.

8 Greenspace Audit (Knowsley Council, 2012) 9 Playing Pitch Assessment and Strategy (Knowsley Council, 2012) 10 Section 77 of the Schools Standards and Framework Act

3.12 In light of robust evidence which states that surplus land assets are no longer required in their existing use and policy restrictions no longer apply, the Council is now actively marketing the sites for residential development.

3.13 Further information regarding this process can be found on the Council’s website: http://www.knowsley.gov.uk/business/sites-and-premises/available-land-and- property.aspx

3.14 Future updates to the Council’s land holdings review will inform subsequent updates to the SHLAA.

Knowsley Affordable Housing Programme 2011-2014 3.15 The Homes and Communities Agency (HCA) published its Affordable Housing Framework in March 2011. The new framework required Registered Provides (RP) to develop a four year programme of affordable housing schemes. Bids submitted to the HCA were given in principle support from the Council. The Council is also supporting the process via the use of its land assets. The programme has the potential to attract inward investment of around £40m into the Borough and deliver over 400 new homes over the four year programme.

3.16 Knowsley Housing Trust (KHT) / First Ark Group, Plus Dane Group and Cosmopolitan (Chester and District Housing Trust) RPs had successful bids. Where detailed design and/or master planning has been undertaken for a site and shared with the Council, the site capacity assumptions are reflected in the SHLAA. Sites without master planning or planning permission have been subject to the standard SHLAA density and developable area assumptions.

3.17 Although some of the sites are located on brownfield land, none of the sites are subject to any significant constraints. Furthermore, all the sites are in receipt of HCA grant funding to ensure they are financially viable in the current market. Therefore all sites have been deemed deliverable within 0-5 years (subject to the standard 20% risk assessment for all non-allocated sites without planning permission).

Call for Sites (CFS) 3.18 Since the first SHLAA a number of formal “Call for Sites” exercises have been held. These have taken place in 2007, 2008 and 2011 This process allowed the study to capture any landowners and third parties that wished to promote land for housing. In addition, in order for this Study to be as comprehensive as possible, the Call for Sites process was repeated between 27th October and 15th December 2011.

3.19 As part of the Call for Sites process in 2011, five general responses regarding the methodology and process were received and 21 sites were submitted for consideration.

3.20 The majority of the sites received were either already included in the SHLAA, had planning permission or were within Knowsley’s Green Belt. Therefore, only 3 new sites were included in the SHLAA supply.

3.21 The sites submitted via the Call for Sites process are listed in Table 3.1.

Risk Assessment 3.22 In line with Government best practice guidance on the undertaking of SHLAAs, a “risk assessment” was applied to the supply in the first SHLAA (2010) to allow for sites that do not come forward for residential development as anticipated. There are clearly a number of reasons why this may occur, such as the inability of a developer to acquire/assemble a site, the possibility that a site may be developed for a use other than housing and the fact that a developer may “land bank” sites until the housing market recovers sufficiently to ensure the development is viable.

3.23 Following discussions with White Young Green (the consultants who undertook the first SHLAA) and a review of representations made during the consultation process it was concluded that a “risk assessment” of 20% would be appropriate.

3.24 This approach has been continued in the 2012 update. In future intelligence will be sought to allow the Council to refine the risk assessment process if required.

3.25 This is likely to include the continuation of the annual contact with known developers and/or landowners with extant planning permission in order to gauge their aspirations for the site and progress with their development where it has commenced. In the coming years the Council will be able to compare responses to this exercise with actual delivery rates.

3.26 Where the Council received a response to the questionnaire the information has informed the phasing and delivery assumptions for that particular site with planning permission. This information in available within Appendix 1.

3.27 An example of the letter and questionnaire sent to developers as part of this process can be found at Appendix 5.

Residential Completions 3.28 Over the last 15 year period there has been an inconsistent number of houses delivered per annum (net of demolitions). The number of dwellings delivered ranges from a maximum of approximately 600 dwellings per annum in 1995/96 and 1999/00, to a minimum of just 12 dwellings during 2009/10.

3.29 The performance in 2010/11 reflects the economic conditions affecting the national housing market. The original SHLAA noted that this phenomenon is likely to affect the number of developments starting on site for some time to come. Evidence from

the site surveys carried out as part of the SHLAA and housing monitoring indicates that a number of sites had been “mothballed”, however there are signs that some previously “mothballed” sites have recently restarted as developers have revised their planning permission and dwelling mix in some cases.

3.30 In considering historic net housing completions, it is important to have regard to the impact of Knowsley’s extensive demolition and associated regeneration programmes, primarily the North Huyton New Deal for Communities (NDC) programme. Since 2004/5 the annual demolition rate has been between 25 – 140 dpa. During 2010/11 and 2011/12 this figure is anticipated for be 181 and 69 dpa respectively. The impact on these planned demolitions has been factored into this update to the SHLAA. There are currently no further demolitions planned beyond 2011/12.

Additional residential development within regeneration areas 3.31 The Core Strategy Preferred Options Report sought to provide additional flexibility to the approach and potential development capacity within existing designated Action Areas at North Huyton, Tower Hill and South Prescot. However, detailed master planning is yet to be undertaken and agreed by the Council. Therefore it is uncertain if these figures can be delivered sustainably. As a result the potential “additional” housing land supply has not been quantified as part of the housing supply identified by this SHLAA. If suitable evidence emerges in the future, it will inform future updates to the SHLAA.

3.32 In the case of South Prescot, which is currently allocated for employment use within the UDP, the allocation may be revised to include an element of residential development to allow for a more flexible approach to future regeneration proposals. Since publication of the Preferred Options Report, the Council granted permission11 for mixed use development (including residential). Although this permission was granted after the study’s base date, the site was already included in the SHLAA following an earlier Call for Sites submission. Due to the significant amount of dwellings attributed to the application, it was prudent to take account of this application within this SHLAA update. The residential yield associated with the planning permission has now been attributed to the SHLAA site (K0369) which has been placed in the 6-10year category due to the significant constraints within the site and the need for a further “reserved matters” planning application and approval prior to commencement.

3.33 The south Prescot application will be included as a “commitment” in future SHLAA updates.

11 Planning application reference: 11/00385/OUT

Economic Viability Assessment 3.34 The NPPF makes clear in Paragraph 173 that viability and deliverability are key tests of all aspects of decision making. While both these issues have been a key part of existing “tests of soundness” the NPPF makes it clear at Paragraph 174 that authorities should assess the cumulative burden of local requirements and Local Plan policy. Critically, any burden placed on a development via policy “asks” should not be such as to deny competitive returns to a willing landowner or developer.

3.35 The Council has commissioned consultants, Keppie Massie, to undertake an Economic Viability Assessment (EVA) of new development within the Borough in the context of existing and emerging policy requirements from the Council’s UDP and Local Plan respectively. This will include requirements for affordable housing, sustainable and high quality building design and public open space. The study will appraise a number of example sites from a variety of locations and development scenarios in order to ascertain which sites are or are not financially viable.

3.36 Initial findings show that the majority of residential development scenarios are financially viable before policy burdens are taken into account. The exception is larger scale apartment based development, which under current market conditions is unviable in some locations. The initial findings of the EVA have informed the preparation of this update to the SHLAA. However, there are no wholly apartment / high density schemes within the identified SHLAA supply, therefore no sites have been affected by the emerging findings of the EVA.

3.37 Final findings from the EVA will inform the Council’s emerging Local Plan: Core Strategy and future updates to the SHLAA.

4. Methodology

4.1 The methodology employed in completing this 2012 update to the SHLAA is derived from that set out in the SHLAA good practice guidance and subsequently used in the first SHLAA published in 2010. The methodology also takes the recently published NPPF into consideration.

4.2 An account of the methodology at each state in the process is recorded below.

Stage 1 – Planning the Assessment 4.3 The SHLAA good practice guidance recommends that the production of the assessment is informed by engagement with key local stakeholders through a Housing Market Partnership (HMP). Such a Partnership should include house builders, social landlords and local property agents, amongst others. Whilst no formal HMP was organised as part of the SHLAA process, extensive consultation has been undertaken with key stakeholders at various stages of the study.

4.4 The formal stakeholder group (comprising of house builders, social landlords, local property agents and public bodies) have been invited to comment on the 2012 Update report.

4.5 The base date for the 2012 Update is 1st April 2011. Therefore, sites which have received planning permission for residential development after this date have not been included in this assessment. The likely capacity from this source will be incorporated into a subsequent update. However, in line with the most recent AMR (2011), the potential land supply is projected from 1st April 2012 taking into account expected completions and demolitions during 2011/12.

Stage 2 – Determining Sources of Sites 4.6 An initial list of sites to survey was produced for the assessment which included all sites in the previous study. The list was accompanied by GIS information and a database including background information on the identified sites. The principal sources of these sites are set out below.

4.7 The 2012 Update does not represent a wholesale review of the SHLAA database. Therefore detailed assessments in relation to the following sources were not undertaken, unless explicitly mentioned. A detailed review of the study will take place at a later date.

Knowsley Urban Capacity Study 4.8 The first SHLAA (published 2010) included an assessment of sites previously identified by the Urban Capacity Study (UCS). The sites which had not already been developed were included in the initial list of SHLAA sites for the previous study. This list was not reviewed as part of the update study.

Ordnance Survey Mapping and Aerial Photography 4.9 Suitable scale Ordnance Survey (OS) maps (1:10,000) and aerial photography dating from 2005/06 were used within the first study to identify suitable residential sites. This survey has been supplemented by updated aerial photography and web based mapping resources will be used to identify sites in a subsequent update.

National Land Use Database (NLUD) 4.10 The NLUD database was not used in this assessment. The NLUD data for Knowsley has not been updated since completion of the original study. Once the NLUD data is reviewed, it will inform a subsequent review of the SHLAA.

Expired and Unimplemented Existing Planning Applications 4.11 The sites with expired planning applications were checked for subsequent applications, and those remaining without permission for housing were included in the list of sites to be assessed.

Site Specific Regeneration Areas (Action Areas and Development Opportunity Sites) and Allocated Housing Sites 4.12 The Council currently has a number of regeneration priorities within the Borough which have been included in the SHLAA, along with UDP housing allocations which were not built out at the study’s base date. Many of these sites are subject to Development Briefs which have Supplementary Planning Document status and, in some cases, are designated Action Areas. These provisions have been made by the Council to help promote regeneration efforts within these areas to assist in identifying issues which will impact on bringing the sites forward for development.

4.13 In some cases higher densities may be pursued by the Council, subsequent to a revised policy framework within the Local Plan. At the current time these potential additional capacities have not been included in the SHLAA assessment.

Call for Sites 4.14 The Council (along with the other partner authorities) invited stakeholders, landowners and other interested parties to submit sites for consideration as part of a “Call for Sites” process in 2011. This was in addition to earlier ‘Call for Sites’ exercises held in 2007, 2008 and 2010 for the previous SHLAAs.

Stage 3 – Desktop Review of Information 4.15 The portfolio of sites identified by Stage 2 of the process has been the subject of thorough examination by Council officers. White Young Green (WYG) developed its own bespoke database for the first study. This has been used to record key facts, judgements and new information concerning the identified sites. The database records 25 criteria in order to provide a comprehensive information source to assist in the undertaking of independent survey work and the assessment of each site’s development potential.

4.16 The 25 criteria are not policy judgements; rather they are an assessment of factors that could influence the delivery of housing. The criteria are as follows.

1. Is the site within a Conservation Area? 2. Are there any Listed Buildings on the site? 3. Is the site within a primarily residential area? 4. Does the site comprise previously developed land? 5. Is there any likelihood of contamination? 6. Does the site need significant new infrastructure in order to be developed for housing? 7. Are there any physical constraints? 8. Is the site situated within Flood Zones 2 or 3? 9. Are there any buildings requiring demolition? 10. Is satisfactory access possible? 11-16. Accessibility and distance from local services. 17. Are there any nature conservation issues? 18. Would redevelopment have a positive regeneration impact on the area? 19. Is the site subject to any un-neighbourly uses? 20. Is the site more suited to non-residential uses? 21. Are there any ownership issues? 22. Is the site owned by developer, or is the owner willing to sell to a developer? 23. Is the site in active use? 24. Is the site underused? 25. Is the site within a strong residential area?

4.17 The results have been recorded and inputted into the SHLAA database.

Stage 4 – Determining Sites to be Surveyed 4.18 Within the first study due to the large number of sites identified at Stage 2, it was decided that it was not cost-efficient or methodologically advantageous to visit all sites less than 0.1 hectares in size. Instead, a 10% statistically representative sample of such sites has been undertaken in order to calculate their likely contribution to the overall housing supply. The yield that is estimated to be delivered from the sample is used as a multiplier to provide a calculation of the supply from all such sources. This ‘small site allowance’ is distinct from a windfall allowance as the sites have been identified on an individual basis, rather than the assessment of supply being entirely theoretical and derived from historical precedent.

4.19 Since completion of the original SHLAA (2010) many of the smaller sites (below 0.1 hectares) have been built out or become unavailable for other reasons. Therefore, within the updated study a 100% survey methodology has been adopted. Therefore there will not be a “small sites” allowance in the updated housing supply figures.

Stage 5 – Carrying out the Assessment 4.20 Each of the new sites or sites where new information had become available from the desktop assessment were visited and assessed by the Council, with the results being recorded using the assessment Proforma.

4.21 Each site has been scored against a number of key criteria. These criteria are used to assess the potential of each site for residential development, taking into account its suitability, availability and achievability in accordance with the SHLAA guidance. Whilst, as previously stated, the scoring has not been used prescriptively to determine the overall suitability of the site, the final score should be taken to be a broad indication of the potential of a given site to be redeveloped for housing.

Assessing Availability for Housing 4.22 The availability of a site relates to its known constraints and how this may impact upon the likelihood of it being developed for housing over the next 15 years. The issues affecting availability which have been considered are as follows:

 whether a site is currently in use or not;  ownership constraints, relating to whether a site is thought to be in multiple ownership or not; and  whether the owner is known to be willing to sell.

Assessing Suitability for Housing 4.23 A site is suitable for housing development if it offers a suitable location for development and would contribute to the creation of sustainable, mixed communities. The factors assessed in considering each identified site’s suitability for housing are:

 policy restrictions, such as allocations, protected areas and existing planning policies;  physical problems or limitations, such as access, infrastructure provision and flood risk (sites lying wholly within Flood Zone 3 are not considered to offer realistic potential for redevelopment for housing and have been excluded from the housing supply);  the site’s proximity to amenities and public transport nodes; and  The environmental conditions which would be experienced by prospective residents, in particular those that may arise from any adjacent land uses being ‘bad neighbours’.

Assessing Achievability of Housing 4.24 The strength of the housing market differs across Knowsley and, in the current economic climate, the viability of developing some of the sites for housing is acknowledged to be an issue. It is therefore important to assess the specific constraints impacting on the delivery of each site in order that the future phasing of sites can be accurately assessed.

4.25 A site is considered achievable for development where there is a reasonable degree of certainty that housing will be developed on the site at a particular point in time. This is essentially a judgement about the economic viability of a site, and the capacity of the developer to complete a development over a certain period. It is affected by:

 market factors, within which we include both housing demand in the general locality and the likely attractiveness of the site to the market; and  cost factors, in terms of whether a site is known to be contaminated, thus requiring significant remediation works in order to be developed for residential purposes, and whether there are buildings requiring demolition on site.

4.26 Within the original study, in order to gauge housing demand in general localities, enquiries have been made of residential land agents and estate agents. This research has been supplemented through the analysis of sales and census data in order to provide an appropriate context for the judgements and assumptions made.

4.27 This research is summarised by way of the Housing Market Overview provided at Appendix 1 within the first SHLAA. These assumptions have underpinned the scoring of sites within the updated study.

Stage 6 – Estimating the Housing Potential of Each Site 4.28 In order to estimate the housing potential of each site, an assessment of its developable area needs to be made. There are a number of factors which may influence the developable area of a site. Limiting factors include topography, irregular shaped plots and site specific constraints such as underground services or flood zones. In Knowsley all sites that are affected by flooding lie within Flood Zone 3. In each case, that part of the site which lies within Flood Zone 3 has been excluded from the developable area.

4.29 Allowance has been made on larger sites for the on-site provision of access roads, along with facilities such as green infrastructure and community uses, to serve the development. The assumptions used in calculating net developable areas are set out below and are based on research undertaken during the preparation of advice set out in government documents such as “Tapping the Potential”12 and the Housing Land Availability Assessments: Draft Practice Guide mentioned previously in this report. Whilst this approach is considered robust and appropriate for the purposes of this study, it should be noted that the net developable area is an indicative figure and that the Council will negotiate appropriate non-housing provision on a site by- site basis when considering future development proposals.

4.30 In order to assess the housing potential of each site, a range of density multipliers have been applied.

4.31 The multiplier applied to each site is that which best reflects the character of the area, the type or mix of housing that would be appropriate on the site and the site’s proximity to a defined centre and to services.

12 Tapping the Potential, (ODPM, 2000)

Table 4.1: Net developable areas Total Site Area Net Developable Area Less than 0.4 ha 100% of developable area 0.4 ha to 2 ha 90% of developable area Sites over 2 ha 75% of developable area Source: Tapping the Potential, (ODPM, 2000)

4.32 The ranges of densities used are set out in Table 4.2. These are identical to those used in the first SHLAA. Alternative densities have been applied in a limited number of cases where it is evident that the shape or character of a site suggests a particular, more specific density. In all such cases, guidance has been sought from Council officers to ensure that the applied density is appropriate.

Table 4.2: Applied site densities Housing Character Applied Density (Dwellings per ha) Low density suburban mix (detached and semi- 30 detached) Low to medium density urban mix (town houses and 40 semi-detached) Medium density urban mix (mainly town houses) 50 High density urban mix (town houses and apartments) 60 Apartments (up to six storey) 70 and above

4.33 Following the identification of a proposed development density, the yield for each site is calculated by multiplying the net site area by the density. The datasheets provided online for consultation indicate the proposed density and yield of each site.

4.34 In the past, many urban capacity and housing land availability studies have tended to seek to maximise the potential supply of housing by applying higher densities than the 30 dwellings per hectare regarded as the minimum acceptable. This has led to concerns over town cramming, particularly where sites included in the study, whilst being vacant and meeting the criteria for development, contribute to the amenity of the local area.

4.35 In Knowsley, many of the sites are classified as brownfield because they are sites which were previously developed for housing or other uses. The properties have been demolished; in many cases the foundations have been left in situ and grassed over creating an amenity space. These sites are generally small with limited capacity. In order not to over-estimate the potential for sites, a benchmark density of 30 dwellings per hectare has generally been applied, unless site conditions suggest a higher density can be satisfactorily achieved.

4.36 The approach taken by the Council in determining the likely densities of identified sites is considered to be cautious and based upon the clear expectation that the type of residential development scheme presently being considered by house builders will

likely result in a lower average development density than that has been typically achieved in recent years.

4.37 The densities applied within the SHLAA compares to an average density for gross completions in 2009/10 and 2010/11 of 65.5 and 54.4 and 65.5 dwellings per hectare respectively13.

4.38 The densities applied to sites are indicative and are provided solely for the purposes of this SHLAA. They should not be taken to be a statement of Council policy on the amount of housing that a given site may accommodate, which will need to be determined through the planning application process.

Stage 7 – Assessing When a Site Will be Developed 4.39 Assessing when each site is likely to come forward for development is not an exact science. Predictions also inevitably become less certain the further into the future a site is forecast to be developed. The Council’s ongoing plan, monitor and manage programme will provide the process for managing changes to this study’s findings as time goes by.

4.40 None of the sites in Knowsley that have been surveyed are known to be constrained by major infrastructure projects - such as a bypass or new sewage treatment works – which could significantly delay development. We have attempted to identify where abnormal levels of enabling works would be required in order to bring a site forward and these instances are noted in the database. In a study of this size it is clearly not practical to undertake a detailed development feasibility of each individual site and this analysis is very much a high level strategic assessment.

4.41 The viability of each site has been assessed by taking into account the strength of the residential market in the locality, the type of housing that could be developed and any implications for construction costs, including costs relating to such factors as demolition and contaminated land. High scoring sites will generally be available for development in the short term, although the timing of release may be influenced by national housing market factors and developer/landowner intentions. Low scoring sites are less likely to be available for development in the short term. This information will be updated once the Council’s EVA is available (see section 3 for further information).

4.42 The supply of housing likely to be delivered in the 0 – 5 years period can be identified with a relatively high degree of certainty as sites in this phase will have scored highly and are generally in compliance with saved development plan policy. These sites will have few, if any, known constraints to development and are generally vacant or known to be available for redevelopment. Accordingly, a large number of sites identified in the five year housing supply were promoted for development through the call for sites exercise or declared surplus by the Council.

13 Annual Monitoring Report 2011 (Knowsley Council, 2011)

4.43 Many of the sites included in the first five year period are vacant and in Council ownership. Nearly all are brownfield. Although market conditions will ultimately determine which sites will be developed during this period, the identified sites are free of constraints, are available for development now and are currently being marketed by the Council.

4.44 Sites placed within the 6 to 10 year housing supply will have some policy or development constraints which limit the speed at which they will come forward for development.

4.45 The viability of each site has been assessed by taking into account the relative strength of the residential market in the locality, the type of housing that could be developed and any implications for construction costs, including costs relating to such factors as demolition and contaminated land. High scoring sites will generally be available or are more likely to come forward earlier although the timing of release may be influenced by national housing market factors.

4.46 For the 6 to 10 year housing supply period, sites have been assessed and considered suitable for housing based on the site visit assessment and the scoring criteria. Although the majority of sites included in the 6 to 10 year supply are previously developed, there are a greater number of greenfield sites than in the five year supply. Sites in the 6 to 10 year supply will typically have policy or development constraints which will affect the timeframe within which they come forward for development.

Stage 8 – Review of the Assessment

4.47 A review of the initial SHLAA survey findings was carried out with Council officers, including representatives from Planning and Regeneration, Asset Management and Highways prior to completion of the study. This review focused on sites within the urban area which had been identified as having potential for development for housing. A number of sites were ruled out at this stage, mainly as a result of difficulties with access. Some sites were found to have limited capacity as a result of access constraints. A list of excluded sites is provided in Appendix 4.

Stage 9 - The Housing Potential of Broad Locations 4.48 The capacity identified by the Study is compared with current RSS / emerging housing targets in order to quantify the number of years housing land supply that Knowsley has. It is clear from the first SHLAA that Knowsley has a significant shortfall in housing land availability.

4.49 The emerging Core Strategy considers how to address this issue, by maximising urban capacity and ultimately by the identification of “broad locations” for longer term development within the Green Belt. The draft Knowsley and Sefton Green Belt Study: Knowsley Report presents the evidence which underpins the identification of areas currently designated as Green Belt, taking into account factors such as national

Green Belt policy, sustainability, environmental impact on the surrounding area and existing infrastructure.

4.50 The consultation draft Green Belt Study and Core Strategy “Preferred Options” Report provided an opportunity for local people, key stakeholders and the development industry to make detailed comments about the direction of future growth.

Stage 10 – Windfalls 4.51 The SHLAA Practice Guidance advises that the supply of land for housing should be based upon specific sites that have been the subject of a survey. The NPPF adds that the use of windfall allowances may be used in the five-year supply if there is compelling evidence that such sites have consistently been available in the local area and that they will continue to provide a reliable source of supply. Any allowance should also be set at a realistic level, having regard to the SHLAA process, historic delivery rates and future trends.

4.52 In recent years, Knowsley has achieved significant numbers of housing completions on sites that are non-allocated. The Council’s AMR (2011) indicates that there were 1,366 dwelling completions on non-allocated sites in Knowsley between 1 April 2006 and 31 March 2010. However, the NPPF clearly states that when considering a windfall allowance regard must be given to the SHLAA process. The depth of the assessment within the first SHLAA published in 2010 and subsequent updates identified a number of additional non-allocated sites without planning permission, which were suitable for residential development.

4.53 Prior to the development of the SHLAA, the Council undertook a different method of calculating urban residential development capacity known as an Urban Capacity Study (UCS). As a result any reliable analysis of past trends for windfall delivery can only be backdated to the base date of the first SHLAA (1st April 2008).

4.54 Between the 1st April 2008 and 31st September 2011 housing monitoring indicates that 1034 gross dwellings (not inclusive of demolitions) have been delivered in Knowsley. In order to assess what proportion of these dwellings were windfall development which could be factored into future housing supply forecasts the following categories of sites had to be identified and discounted:

 Sites allocated for residential development; and  Sites with extant planning permission at the 1st April 2008.

4.55 Sites with extant planning permission were not surveyed at part of the SHLAA process. However, the likely yield from this source has been quantified as a component of the overall SHLAA supply. Therefore, sites with planning permission have been taken into account by the SHLAA process and to base a windfall calculation on this category of site would amount to “double counting” and an over- estimation of potential future windfall delivery.

4.56 Once the types of sites listed in para. 4.54 were excluded from the appraisal it was concluded that just 48 dwellings had been delivered on “windfall” sites between 2008 and 2011. An annual breakdown of windfall delivery is provided in Table 4.3.

Table 4.3: Historic windfall delivery Monitoring Year Dwellings per (1st April – 31st March unless stated annum otherwise) 2008 - 9 9 2009 - 10 8 2010 - 11 28 1st April 2011 – 31st September 2011 3 Cumulative Total 48 Annual Average (2008-10) 12

4.57 Although the annual average of 12 windfall completions per annum is considered an accurate account of historic delivery, it is not considered sufficiently robust to project this rate of delivery forward when calculating future land supply. This is primarily due to the short timeframe (under 5-years) within which the figure has been calculated. Additionally, the prevailing housing market and wider economic conditions over this timeframe are likely to have adversely affected the delivery of residential development. Furthermore, the Council operated a housing constraint policy between March 2005 and February 2008. The policy limited residential planning application approvals primarily to existing housing allocations and/or regeneration priorities.

4.58 The rate at which windfall development continues to be delivered will be monitored in the future. If clear and reliable trends become apparent in the future, an allowance for windfall delivery may be taken into consideration in future updates to the SHLAA.

5. Stakeholder consultation

5.1 In order to validate the initial findings of the 2012 update to the SHLAA, Sefton, Knowsley, and West Lancashire Councils jointly convened a meeting of the Housing Market Partnership (HMP) on the 30th of April 2012. The HMP was also consulted as during the preparation of the 1st SHLAA (published 2010) and SHLAA 2011 Update. The agenda and note of the meeting can be found at Appendix 6 and 7 respectively.

5.2 HMP members include locally active house builders, Housing Associations (Registered Providers), property professionals and the Home Builders Federation (HBF).

5.3 The joint authorities held a “Call for Sites” exercise between 27th October and 15th December 2011. The Council received a number of responses to the consultation. Table 3.1 lists the responses received.

Consultation with HMP 5.4 The HMP was consulted on the draft SHLAA report and site appraisals over a four week period (Monday 16th July – Friday 10th August).

5.5 The Council received one response from the HMP as part of the consultation on the draft assessment. The comments were generally supportive of the adopted methodology and site appraisals. Many of the comments were noted as they were more related to the development management process than the appraisal of sites within a SHLAA. No changes were made to the assessment as a result of the comments received.

6. Monitoring and review

6.1 The base date for this SHLAA report in 1st April 2011. This report represents a full update of the previous SHLAA published in 2011.

6.2 The Council monitors all residential planning permissions as at 31st May of each year to support the annual production of the Monitoring Report . Each site is then surveyed, via site visit if necessary, with the figures informing the subsequent update to the SHLAA and Council’s 5-year supply.

6.3 To support the SHLAA and maintain a robust evidence base the Council also contacts landowners to ascertain their intentions and conducts a “Call for Sites” exercise at regular intervals.

6.4 The next update to the SHLAA (2013 Update) will have a base date of 1st April 2012 and will be published in 2013 to support the public examination of Knowsley’s Local Plan: Core Strategy.

7. Results of the assessment

Introduction 7.1 In this section the results from the study are presented to identify whether the RSS and emerging Local Plan: Core Strategy dwelling targets can be achieved.

Results 7.2 The SHLAA 2012 update findings are summarised in Table 7.1 and the following section.

Table 7.1: “Risk assessed” Housing Supply from 1st April 2012 Source Plan Period Total 0 – 5 6 – 10 11 – 15 year year year SHLAA Sites (gross) 2,100 1,092 0 3,192 SHLAA Sites (risk assessed) 1,680 874 0 2,554 Commitments and 1,952 1,212 533 3,697 Allocations (gross) Commitments and 1,667 989 426 3,082 Allocations (risk assessed) Total (gross) 4,052 2304 533 6,889 Total (risk assessed) 3,347 1,863 426 5,636 5 year Housing Requirement 2,250 2,250 2,250 6,750 + 5% Buffer 2,363 +20% Buffer 2,700 Potential over/under supply 1,097 -387 -1,824 -1,114 Over Supply (+5% and 20%) 984 / 647

7.3 Table 7.1 sets out the identified housing supply in the Borough over the 15 years from 1st April 2012. The information includes supply arising from allocated sites, action areas and extant planning permissions, which is set out in the Council’s Annual Monitoring Report (AMR) 2011. Should any of the identified capacity not be realised within an ascribed period, then this capacity may be carried forward to the following supply period.

7.4 In total, the assessment indicates that the Borough has a sufficient five year supply to meet the current housing target of 450 dwellings per annum (equating to 2,250 dwellings), with the majority of the identified supply being already committed as extant planning permissions and allocations.

7.5 For the purposes of the SHLAA, persistent under delivery is understood to mean under delivery for two or more of the most recent and consecutive monitoring years (i.e. 2010/11 and 2011/12). The Council’s AMR for these monitoring years shows that the net delivery was 178 and 141 respectively. Therefore, the SHLAA concludes that Knowsley has persistently “under delivered” against its housing target of 450 per annum. Under the NPPF,

there is therefore a requirement to maintain a six-year supply of deliverable sites, equating to a capacity of 2,700 dwellings.

7.6 There is therefore sufficient supply to meet the requirement for an additional 20% based on recent persistent under delivery.

7.7 Table 7.1 shows an “oversupply” of 647 dwellings or 1.44 years in relation to the 0 – 5 year supply +20% requirement.

7.8 In the 6 – 10 year housing supply period, there is a small under-supply in relation to the annual housing target of -387 dwellings. In this period, the supply is split between sites identified by the SHLAA process and delivery from commitments and allocations.

7.9 The assessment also demonstrates that there is a limited supply of 426 dwellings in the 11 – 15 year category. These are attributed to existing commitments and allocations identified by the 2011 AMR within North Huyton, Thingwall Hall, Huyton and Tower Hill, Kirkby.

7.10 Given the shortfall in the 6 – 10 and 11-15 year categories, it is likely the land currently designated as Green Belt will need to be released within this timeframe to ensure dwelling targets are to be achieved.

Consideration of Under-Provision against Dwelling Targets – RSS Target 7.11 Despite the Government’s clear intention to abolish Regional Strategies, at the time of publication the RSS is part of the development plan. Therefore, it is necessary to take account of historic delivery against the RSS dwelling target since the start of the RSS plan period from 2003 to 2021.

7.12 Completions data outlined in the 2011 Monitoring Report shows that 2,036 net additional dwellings have been delivered between 2003 and 2011. This compares to an RSS target of 3,600 over the same period. As the RSS requirement is a net figure, any future demolitions would therefore need to be replaced. During 2011/12 a further 210 dwellings are estimated to have completed and a further 69 dwellings have been recorded as demolitions14. Therefore the under provision against the target in 2011/12 is expected to be 309.

7.13 This equates to an under-provision of -1,873 (1,564+309) dwellings when compared to the RRS target over the period 2003 – 2011.

14 Figures are derived from the AMR 2011 monitoring and estimated delivery on sites between October 2011 and March 2012 which have been supplemented with additional information from developers. Demolitions data is derived from records from North Huyton NDC and KHT. This information will be updated in the 2012 Monitoring Report.

Consideration of Under-Provision against Dwelling Targets – Local Plan Target 7.14 Additionally, due to the advanced stage of Knowsley’s Local Plan: Core Strategy it is necessary to examine how the housing requirements of the Core Strategy can be achieved. The base date for the Council’s emerging “locally derived” housing target is 1st April 2010. The net average target is 450 dwellings per annum.

7.15 Based on net delivery since 1st April 2010 and the information outlined in paragraph 7.3 the under-provision when compared to the Local Plan dwelling target is -581 (272+309) dwellings.

Addressing Historic Under-Provision against Targets 7.16 Government guidance is clear that dwelling targets should take account of historic under delivery.

7.17 Due to the current economic climate it is unlikely that the Council will be able to account for the historic under provision and therefore exceed 450 dpa in the short term (0 – 5 years). It is considered more realistic to assume that the under-provision can be accounted for once the housing market recovers in the medium (6 – 10 year) and long (11 – 16 year) timeframes. This is likely to coincide with the timing for Green Belt release, which will result in a number of commercially attractive large sites becoming available for residential development. As a result the Council may be able to deliver over and above the annualised target of 450 dpa while these locations are being built out.

7.18 The relationship and associated phasing requirements between existing commitments and allocations, SHLAA identified sites and Green Belt release will be explored within Local Plan: Core Strategy and specifically the housing trajectory.

8. Summary and conclusions

8.1 The SHLAA is a key part of the evidence base for Knowsley’s emerging Local Plan and will assist the Council in delivering the required level of residential development. The updated Study has been undertaken in accordance with Government good practice guidance and provides an indication of the land available for housing development over a 15 year period.

8.2 After making provision in the housing supply for a “risk assessment”, the SHLAA identifies an over-supply of 547 dwellings in the five year period (including an additional 20% buffer) from 1st April 2012. Beyond the 0 – 5 year period there is an under-supply of -387 dwellings in the 6 – 10 year period. A further 426 dwellings are identified in the 11 – 15 year period, which represents a shortfall of -1,181 dwellings.

8.3 Accordingly, across the 15 year period from 1st April 2012, there is a net supply of approximately 12.6 years when compared to the existing RSS housing target or the emerging locally derived target of 450 dpa.

8.4 National planning policy sets out a requirement for local planning authorities, via the SHLAA process, to identify specific, developable sites to provide a ten year supply of housing and, where possible, a 15 year supply. Where it is not possible to identify specific sites for years 11 to 15, “broad locations” for future growth should be indicated.

8.5 As this SHLAA has demonstrated that there are insufficient housing sites in Knowsley to provide housing beyond a 12 year period, there is a clear need to consider where longer term housing growth could be accommodated.

8.6 In order to indentify “broad locations” for longer term growth the Council has developed a draft Green Belt Study jointly with neighbouring Sefton Council. The identification of suitable “broad locations” has been undertaken as a separate study as it was considered to be outside the scope of a SHLAA to undertake a comprehensive and robust Green Belt Review.

8.7 Knowsley and Sefton Councils consulted on their separate draft reports of the joint Green Belt Study during summer 2011, alongside their associated Core Strategy documents.

8.8 Once Knowsley’s Green Belt Study is finalised and the Core Strategy is adopted, any associated “broad locations” highlighted for Green Belt release, will be drawn into subsequent updates to the SHLAA. This will allow the SHLAA process to identify sustainable locations for the longer term (i.e. years 11 – 15) housing development.

Allocated for employment in UDP however Comments: evidence in the Joint Employment Land and Premises Study concludes that the site cannot be accessed via the existing business park and residential uses may be more appropriate.

Conclusion: Employment allocation, but identified as having inadequate access by the Council's Joint Employment Land & Premises Study. Local Plan is likely to consider alternative uses.

Site Survey Former / existing industrial land in need of significant remediation and demolition in order to be suitable for future uses. The site is designated as South Prescot Action Area (Area Comments: A) wihtin the UDP.

Conclusion: Considered to offer potential for mixed use development inline with emerging policy wihtin the Council's Local Plan Core Strategy. After the base date for this SHLAA (1st April 2011) the Council granted outline planning permission (11/00385/OUT) for mixed use development including 623. This density of this application has informed the density canculations in the SHLAA. Accordingly, this site is currently thought to represent realisible housing capacity and has been placed in the 6 - 10 year category. This is due to the variety of constraints within the site which may impact on delivery. This will be reviewed when updating the SHLAA.

Venue: Bootle Town Hall, Oriel Road, Bootle

1. Introduction and presentations

• Alan Young (Sefton) introduced the workshop and thanked everyone for attending. AY, SB, and JW each gave brief presentations about progress with respective Core Strategies / Local Plans and recent SHLAA updates.

2. Discussion about possible methodological changes to the SHLAAs

• A number of potential changes to the SHLAA methodology were set out and an explanatory note was circulated in advance of the meeting. These changes will be subject to an informal consultation over the next 4 weeks, and comments from the HMP are welcomed. A further more detailed note will be circulated shortly to inform this consultation. • It was suggested that the proposed methodological changes could result in an increase to the urban housing land supply than at present. • RB stated that the 3 authorities were currently under-delivering against housing targets and the SHLAAs could therefore already be viewed as overly optimistic • JS stated that in his experience, even where a developer had stated their intention to develop a site to a certain timescale, this would not always be matched by delivery on the ground. • JS stated that the conversion allowance proposed within Sefton would essentially equate to a windfall allowance, and no further windfall allowance should be permitted beyond this.

3. Discussion regarding the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF)

• The ‘duty to co-operate’ was discussed in detail. It was noted that the 3 authorities would need to have further discussions with Liverpool and other Merseyside Districts about cross-boundary planning issues. • It was noted that cross-boundary planning had run into problems elsewhere including Central Lancashire and the Bristol City Region. The ‘duty to cooperate’ was also one of the main concerns raised by the York Core Strategy Inspector. • MR stated that Liverpool MBC were carefully considering the duty to cooperate and how this would affect their Local Plan. He considered that there were uncertainties about how this could work in practice, and how much evidence would be required.

• It was noted by JS that the duty to cooperate was a 2-stage process. The legal requirement set out in the Localism Act is essentially about process – e.g. have authorities co-operated ‘yes’ or ‘no’. The NPPF test is about the outcome of that co-operation, which must be “effective” for a Local Plan to be found sound. Local authorities could not rely on the former in isolation.

4. Questions to the HMP

• The HMP was asked whether the housing market was beginning to pick up. o A number of the house builders present stated that there was more activity on their sites in terms of visits/viewings and that house prices appeared to be stabilising. However it was important to have then right product in the right location – i.e. family properties in good market locations o RA stated that many of his smaller to medium sized clients were struggling to secure finance from the banks and this situation appeared to be worsening. o JS stated that the government’s ‘New Buy’ scheme could assist • AY asked the Housing Associations present about the implications of the benefit changes on the need for 1-bedroom apartments. Would this necessitate a change in current planning policy? o The Housing Associations present supported a relaxation on the current restrictive planning policies towards 1-bedroom apartments. o A number commented that they did not want to build more 1-bedroom apartments, which were viewed as too small and inflexible, but were being forced to do this by changes to the benefits system. • AY stated that he would be happy to discuss potentially suitable housing sites in Sefton that could help to address the current 5-year supply deficit.

5. Questions from the HMP

• ME asked whether Sefton had considered the implications of right to buy legislation. This requires Housing Associations to replace stock lost through right to buy on a one-for-one basis. o AY stated that this had not yet been considered but agreed that it would need to be looked at further. • PH asked whether the additional evidence that Sefton were commissioning was to build a stronger case for Green Belt release? o AY stated that is was not yet clear which approach Councillors would pursue and the additional studies had not been commissioned with this purpose in mind. • PH noted that there had been an overwhelmingly negative response in Sefton to the prospect of Green Belt release, although this had only come from a small portion of the voting population. He stated that a ‘silent majority’ were not opposed to more development and there was a clear need for more houses. o AY stated that we could not assume what the views of those who had not responded might have been. • ME noted that Sefton’s Core Strategy was significantly behind Knowsley’s and West Lancashire’s, and asked how long Sefton was prepared to wait? o AY stated that this was ultimately a decision for Councillors to take

6. Next Meeting date

The next meeting is likely to be held in late 2012.
