  • Residential Planning Commitments at 31 March 2020
    RESIDENTIAL PLANNING COMMITMENTS AT 31 MARCH 2020 Information on the progress of residential development between 1 April 2019 and 31 March 2020 in Reading Borough READING BOROUGH COUNCIL – RESIDENTIAL COMMITMENTS 2020 RESIDENTIAL PLANNING COMMITMENTS AT 31 MARCH 2020 Information on the progress of residential development between 1 April 2019 and 31 March 2020 in Reading Borough Published June 2020 - 1 - READING BOROUGH COUNCIL – RESIDENTIAL COMMITMENTS 2020 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This publication looks at commitments for housing in Reading Borough at 31 March 2020. It deals with change in the number of dwellings, based on the planning process. It includes those sites that have planning permission (hard commitments) and those that have been identified in principle as being suitable for housing development (soft commitments). The key net figures for Reading Borough for the monitoring year 1 April 2019 to 31 March 2020 are summarised below: With Total hard Newly permission Under commitments Soft Total hard permitted Completed Lapsed but not construction outstanding commitments and soft dwellings started (N/S + U/C) 492 3,754 1,633 5,387 8,797 14,184 524 104 Completion numbers are at a relatively low level this year compared to the strong delivery over recent years, and are below the Local Plan annual target of 689 dwellings. The exceptionally high number of dwellings under construction would under normal circumstances have suggested that this is more likely to be down to natural fluctuation, with high completion levels to be expected in forthcoming years. However, the social distancing measures introduced near the end of the monitoring year which affected construction sites, and the likelihood of a recession as a result of Covid-19 measures means that there is significant uncertainty.
