Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment & Five Year Land Supply Update 2014

Introduction

The purpose of this report is to update the Leicester City Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment (SHLAA). It sets out the assessment of deliverable housing land for the City for the five-year period 2014/15-2018/19 (1 April 2014 – 31 March 2019) and the following ten-year period 2019/20-2028/29. It represents a snapshot of this housing land supply as at 31st March 2014.

The SHLAA has been produced in accordance with the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) (2012) and National Planning Practice Guidance (NPPG) (2014). The Housing Market Area (HMA) wide SHLAA Methodology Paper (2009) sets out how SHLAA’s across Leicestershire will be carried out in line with national guidance. This means there is a high level of consistency across the outcomes of the SHLAA’s across the Leicestershire HMA. This local methodology is currently being revised following the publication of the NPPF and NPPG, and is expected to be finalised later in 2014. Future SHLAA updates will be produced in accordance with the updated local methodology.

The original 2009 SHLAA report and methodology can be viewed at www.leicester.gov.uk/shlaa.

The main role of the assessment is to:  Identify sites and broad locations with potential for housing development;  Assess their development potential; and  Assess their suitability for development and the likelihood of development coming forward (availability and achievability).

It should be noted that whilst the SHLAA is an important evidence base to inform plan making, it does not in itself determine whether or not a site should be granted planning permission or allocated for housing development. The assessment will technically assess as many options as possible for accommodating residential development, but it is for the Local Plan to select the sites that would meet needs and best deliver the spatial vision and meet spatial objectives, by drawing upon the Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment and other evidence.

The SHLAA is therefore not a decision making document and it does not allocate land for housing. The judgement over the suitability of a site for housing in the SHLAA does not in any way prejudice the determination of any future planning application on that site.

A call for sites exercise was held in late 2013 as part of the process of identifying new sites for the SHLAA. The call for sites was advertised on the Council’s website

Page 1 of 11 and featured in the Leicester Mercury. In addition over 200 interested stakeholders were contacted directly via email or letter with details of the exercise.

National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF)

The NPPF sets out the Government’s national planning policies for England, and how they should be applied. One of the key aims of the NPPF is to significantly boost the supply of housing. It sets out 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. The NPPF expects Local Authorities to:  Use their evidence base to ensure that their Local Plan meets the full, objectively assessed needs for market and affordable housing;  Identify specific deliverable sites sufficient to provide five years supply of housing;  Identify specific developable sites, or broad locations for growth, to provide housing for years 6-10 and, where possible, years 11-15;  Include an allowance for windfall sites for the first five years supply where there is compelling evidence that such sites will continue to provide a reliable source of supply; and  Include an additional 5% or, where there has been a persistent under delivery of housing, 20% buffer of Identified specific deliverable sites for the first five year period, brought forward from later in the plan period.

National Planning Practice Guidance (NPPG)

The NPPG was published in 2014 to provide additional guidance on the NPPF. It replaced and superseded much of the existing planning guidance including the original 2007 SHLAA guidance.

The NPPG guidance on housing land availability assessments is broadly in line with the original 2007 guidance however there are several new considerations to take into account.

The NPPG states that the assessment should consider all sites capable of accommodating five or more dwellings (or 0.25ha), but that alternative thresholds can be used where appropriate. For Leicester a threshold of ten or more dwellings has been used since the original 2009 SHLAA. The reason why this threshold was chosen is that it was considered the most realistic and suitable level for a large urban authority, balancing site coverage and the available resources. Further detail on this is provided in the joint local methodology. Having reconsidered this in light of the NPPG it has been decided to retain the ten or more dwelling site size threshold for the reasons given above.

The NPPG also clarifies that windfall allowances may be included in the land supply beyond the first five year period (i.e. in years 6-15) where this is in accordance with the windfall criteria set out in the NPPF (paragraph 48). This states that:

Page 2 of 11

‘Local planning authorities may make an allowance for windfall sites in the five-year supply if they have compelling evidence that such sites have consistently become available in the local area and will continue to provide a reliable source of supply. Any allowance should be realistic having regard to the Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment, historic windfall delivery rates and expected future trends, and should not include residential gardens.’

The approach to the use of a windfall (or small sites) allowance in Leicester is set out later in the report.

Lastly, self-contained student housing has, for a number of years, formed part of the land supply calculations, in that they would count towards achieving the housing target in the Local Plan. The NPPG now clarifies that communal student halls of residence developments may now also count towards the housing requirement. In addition housing for older people, including residential institutions (in use class C2), may also form part of the housing land supply. Subsequent SHLAA’s will assess the potential for including these forms of residential development within future land supply calculations.

Housing Requirement and Past Completions

The adopted Leicester City Core Strategy (Nov 2010) sets out a housing target for the city of 1,280 dwellings per year (25,600 in the period 2006-2026).

Table 1 below shows net housing completions since the start of the plan period in 2006. A total of 8,650 dwellings have been provided over the last eight years. This leaves a residual requirement, over the remaining 12 years of the plan, of 16,950 dwellings. The table shows that although the average yearly completion rate is around 1,080 dwellings, the annual housing requirement has not been met in any of the years since 2006.

Deliverable and Developable Sites

A total of 166 sites have been assessed as suitable for housing, of which 88 were considered to be deliverable within the first five years and 78 developable during the following ten years.

Sufficient sites were identified for 7,229 dwellings over the next five years. Due to phasing on larger sites (such as at Ashton Green and Abbey Meadows) the overall capacity on deliverable sites is much larger than that identified to be delivered in the first five year period. The total capacity identified on deliverable sites, including dwellings likely to be delivered beyond the first five years is 10,026. In addition 10,394 dwellings could be accommodated on identified developable sites over the following ten year period within the city (see table 2 below).

Table 5 highlights that the majority of dwellings on sites which could be developed beyond the next five years are already identified in the planning system. Approximately 71% of the supply (9,393 dwellings) are either on sites under construction, have planning permission (detailed or outline) or are allocated in the Local Plan.

Supply on Small Sites

As explained earlier in the report, only sites capable of accommodating ten or more dwellings have been included in the assessment. It is however recognised that smaller sites contribute significantly to the housing supply in Leicester and should be reflected in land supply figures.

As noted above the NPPF and NPPG makes provision for an allowance for windfall sites where there is evidence that such sites consistently become available and will

Page 5 of 11 continue to provide a reliable source of supply. Such an allowance should be realistic, based on historic delivery rates and expected future trends, and should not include residential gardens. Table 6 shows that since 2006, an average of 160 dwellings have been built each year on small sites, excluding completions on residential gardens.

Table 6: Completions on small sites (2006-2014)

In addition table 7 shows that on average almost 300 dwellings have been approved on small sites each year since 2006.

TOTAL 29,713 2,381 AVERAGE 3,714 298

It would be expected that such a supply would continue in future years, as evidenced by the history of approvals and completions, therefore an allowance of 160 dwellings per annum has been assumed over the plan period.

Five Year Land Supply

The Core Strategy sets out a requirement of 1,280 dwellings per year, or 6,400 over five years. This is the basic housing target however it must be recalculated to include the NPPF buffers and address past under-provision.

As shown in table 1 there has been an under provision of 1,590 dwellings so far in the plan period. Taking into account this under provision the net annual requirement is adjusted to 1,412 dwellings per year. The requirement over five years is therefore 7,060 dwellings.

With the addition of a 5% buffer, as set out in the NPPF, this would increase the required five year supply to 7,380 dwellings. An additional 20% buffer would increase the required 5 year supply to 8,340.

The potential supply on identified deliverable sites can provide 7,229 dwellings over the next five years. Including small sites, an additional 800 (160 X 5) dwellings can be provided. In total therefore the potential housing supply over the next five years is 8,029.

Sufficient sites (including small sites) have been identified to meet the housing target and 5% buffer of 7,380 over the next five years. However the land supply falls short of meeting the target and 20% buffer. Table 8 shows the five year land supply against the various housing target scenarios.

Five year supply including NPPF 5% buffer and 1,476 7,380 4.9 years 5.4 years allowance for past under provision

Five year supply including NPPF 20% buffer and 1,668 8,340 4.3 years 4.8 years allowance for past under provision

In addition there is an overall supply of identified housing sites in the city capable of accommodating 22,820 dwellings up to 2029 (20,420 on large sites and 2,400 on small sites). This is sufficient to meet the requirement of 20,790 over that period (16,950 residual up to 2026 and 3,840 (3 years at 1,280 for the period 2027-2029)).

Overall, this shows that there are sufficient sites to meet the housing target over the lifetime of the plan, but that there are currently issues over housing supply in the short term. This is seen mainly as a consequence of the wider economic situation affecting housebuilding and development viability. As a result of this a number of sites with planning permission have been pushed further back in the plan period due to doubts over current viability, whilst some sites with consent for high density development have been given a reduced notional housing allowance due to concerns over the likelihood of these sites coming forward at the original higher density levels. Furthermore a number of the key developments within the city are expected to come forward later in the plan period or are phased over a long time frame.

It should be noted that, as shown in tables 3 and 5, there are sites with planning permission, outline permission or currently under construction with a total capacity of 11,977 dwellings (or 59% of identified large sites up to 2029). Therefore a considerable amount of the identified supply has the potential to be developed relatively swiftly. Table 7 also highlights that since 2006 planning permission (detailed and outline) has been granted for almost 30,000 dwellings in the city. Issues over potential short term housing delivery are not therefore a result of a lack of supply of sufficient sites with planning consent.
