Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead Five Year Housing Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead Five Year Housing Land Supply Statement – December 2018 Introduction The Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead (RBWM) is required to deliver a continuous five year supply of housing to meet its future housing requirement. This statement sets out RBWM’s position in relation to a five year supply of deliverable housing sites in the borough taking into account the requirements of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) 2018. This five year housing land supply statement covers the period 1 April 2018 to 31 March 2023. Baseline for measuring the 5 year supply A Berkshire (including South Bucks) Strategic Housing Market Assessment (SHMA) was published in March 2016. The results found that the Borough operates within the Eastern Housing Market Area with Slough Borough Council and South Bucks and that over the period from 2013 to 2036, 712 new dwellings would be required per year in the Borough. However, in July 2018, the revised NPPF was published. Paragraph 73 of the NPPF (2018) states that, local planning authorities should identify and update annually a supply of specific deliverable sites sufficient to provide a minimum of five years’ worth of housing against their housing requirement set out in adopted strategic policies, or against their local housing need where the strategic policies are more than five years old. As the Council’s adopted Local Plan is more than five years old, the starting point for calculating the 5 year housing land supply should be the standard methodology1. As per the standard methodology - for the monitoring period that this document covers - average household growth over the period 2018-2028 has been informed by the 2016-based Office of National Statistics (ONS) household projections as published on September 20th 20182. Those figures show a baseline average household growth figure for the Council over the period 2018-2028 is 339. As per the PPG3, where the relevant strategic policies for housing were adopted more than five years ago, the local housing need figure is capped at 1 Planning Practice Guidance - 3-030-20180913 2 2016-based Household Projections Live Tables; Table 406: https://www.ons.gov.uk/file?uri=/peoplepopulationandcommunity/populationandmigration/populationproj ections/datasets/householdprojectionsforengland/2016based/householdprojectionsmaintables.xlsx 3 Planning Practice Guidance - 2a-004-20180913 40% above whichever is higher between the projected household growth for the area over the 10 year period, or the average annual housing requirement figure set out in the most recently adopted strategic policies (if a figure exists). The Council does not have a current adopted strategic policy, therefore, when the 40% cap is applied to the projected household growth for the area over the 10 year period of 339, the local housing need figure is 475 dwellings per annum. 2016 ONS Household Projections Projected Households 2018 60,969 Projected Households 2028 64,359 Projected increase in Households 2018-28 3390 Projected household increase per annum 339 2018-28 Housing Need Figure (including 40% cap 475 added to housing growth figure over 10 year period taken from the most recent household projections) Defining the appropriate additional buffer for the five year supply target Paragraph 73 of the NPPF (2018) also states that the supply of specific deliverable sites should in addition include a buffer. In the Council’s case, this buffer would either be 5% to ensure choice and competition in the market for land, or 20% where there has been significant under delivery of housing over the previous three years, to improve the prospect of achieving the planned supply. As per Footnote 39 of the NPPF states that from November 2018, past delivery should be measured against that the Housing Delivery Test. The PPG4 states that where delivery over the previous three years has fallen below 85% of the requirement, a 20% buffer should be applied. At this stage, because the Council does not have a Local Plan adopted in the past five years, transitional arrangements apply for the financial years 2015/16, 2016/17 and 2017/18 and the minimum annual local housing need figure is replaced by various household projections in respect of the data to be used to calculate the Housing Delivery Test5. The results of these calculations can be seen below in Table 1: 4 Planning Practice Guide - 3-037-20180913 5 Housing Delivery Test Measurement Rule Book (July 2018) – pg. 8 2015-16 2016-17 2017-18 Net Additional Dwellings 602 584 515 Net Housing Requirement 646 646 553 (2012- (2012- (2014- based for based for based for 2015-25) 2016-26) 2017-27) Net Homes Delivered 596 620 581 Annual Housing Delivery Test (%) 92% 96% 105% HOUSING DELIVERY TEST (%) 97% Table 1 – Appropriate Buffer Calculations Table 1 indicates that delivery was above 85% of the minimum requirement when following the approach outlined in the Housing Delivery Test6, therefore, a 5% buffer should be applied. However, in the interest of thoroughness, in the results section of this document, the 5 year housing supply figure if a 20% buffer was to be applied has also been included. Calculation of the 5 Year Housing Land Supply Deliverable Supply A number of sites have been identified in the Housing and Economic Land Availability (HELAA) 20187 as being ‘deliverable’ and are anticipated to be delivered within the next 5 years. A list of these sites is outlined in Appendix 1. Some of these sites will continue to deliver housing beyond the next five years. Committed Development anticipated to be delivered before 31st March 2021 A number of sites have been granted planning permission and are anticipated to be delivered within the next 5 years. A list of these sites is outlined in Appendix 1. Some of these sites will continue to deliver housing beyond the next five years. Windfall Allowance The NPPF states that ‘Local Planning Authorities may make an allowance for windfall sites in the five year supply if they have compelling evidence that such sites have constantly become available in the local area and will continue to provide a reliable source of supply’8. A windfall allowance has been included which takes into account the historic housing 6 Housing Delivery Test Rule Book, July 2018: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/housingdelivery- test-measurement-rule-book 7 Housing and Economic Land Availability Assessment (2018) 8 NPPF (2018) – Paragraph 70 completions and the number of planning permission granted on windfall sites over the past five years. Analysis of the Council’s historic data supports the inclusion of windfall allowances for sites small sites (less than 0.25ha). This definition of small site is in line with the agreed Berkshire HELAA Methodology 20169 and allows for no double counting between the sites classified as deliverable in the HELAA and the sites identified as having been granted planning permission in the housing commitments figures within the 5 year housing land supply calculations. 9 Berkshire Housing Economic Land Availability Assessment Methodology (2016) Results 5 Year Housing Land Supply - 2016 Household Projections Table 2 below sets out the residual housing requirement up to 31 March 2021. When considered against the 2016 Household Projection Data and with a 5% buffer added, the Council is able to demonstrate that, as of March 31st 2018, it has a 6.63 year housing land supply. 5 Year Housing Land Supply Position – 31st March 2018 Housing requirement dwellings per annum 475 Housing Requirement for 5 years 2375 Net Completions 2013/14 360 Net Completions 2014/15 514 Net Completions 2015/16 603 Net Completions 2016/17 584 Net Completions 2017/18 515 Net completions from 1st April 2013 to 31st 2576 March 2018 = Required completions from 1st April 2018 – 2375 31st March 2023 = Ahead of plan by 201 Residual requirement from 1st April 2018 – 2174 31st March 2023 1 = Residual requirement including 5% buffer 2283 brought forward from later in plan Residual requirement including 20% buffer 2609 brought forward from later in plan Expected completions from 1st Apr 2018 to 1354 31st Mar 2023 in commitments Windfall allowance for 5 years 825 Other deliverable sites 843 Total estimated delivery 3022 5-year land supply (20% buffer) 5.81 5-year land supply (5% buffer) 6.63 Table 2 – 2016 Household Projection Calculations – 31st March 2018 Conclusions In summary this statement sets out that as of the 31st March 2018, the Council has a demonstrable 5 year housing land supply of deliverable sites during the period 1 April 2018 to 31 March 2023. The Council recognises that this figure could be subject to change following the outcome of the Government’s consultation on the way in which the local need housing figure is calculated. Further 5 Year Housing Supply Statements will be prepared when any additional information becomes available.

  • 14/00350/FULL Location: Bellman Hanger Shurlock Row Re
    MAIDENHEAD DEVELOPMENT CONTROL PANEL 7 May 2014 Item: 3 Application 14/00350/FULL No.: Location: Bellman Hanger Shurlock Row Reading RG10 0PL Proposal: Erection of 4 dwellings with associated access and landscaping following the demolition of the existing buildings and hardstanding Applicant: Mr Craker- Shanly Homes Limited Agent: Not Applicable Parish/Ward: Waltham St Lawrence Parish If you have a question about this report, please contact: Fiona Jones on 01628 796355 or at [email protected] 1. SUMMARY 1.1 The proposed development would be perceived as more urbanising impact and the buildings would be seen as sprawling over a greater area than the existing hanger building. It would therefore have a greater impact on the openness of the Green Belt than the existing development on the site and would thus cause harm due to its inappropriateness, its impact on the openness of the Green Belt and its harm to the amenity of the Green Belt and the rural character of the site and its countryside setting. 1.2 The site is in an isolated location and would not represent a sustainable form of development within this rural location. 1.3 Overall, it would conflict with the overall aims of the Council’s Green Belt policies of the Local Plan and the National Planning Policy Framework NPPF. It is recommended the Panel refuses planning permission for the following summarised reasons (the full reasons are identified in Section 10 of this report): 1. Notwithstanding the reduction in the footprint and total volume of buildings on the site, the proposal by reason of the disposition of buildings across the site frontage would have a greater impact on the openness of the Green Belt than existing development on the site.
