Development Plans and Targets
The current development plan – the Local Development Framework (LDF) has a housing requirement for 6,540 dwellings up to 2026, the annual target was 330 dwellings (gross) up to 2008, then 290 dwellings per year thereafter or 280 dwellings per year net. The emerging local plan as informed by the Housing and Economic Development Needs Assessment 2018 (HEDNA) has identified an annual housing requirement of 315 dwellings per year net. This gives a housing requirement to 2035 of 6,615 homes. The government introduced a housing requirement under the Housing Delivery Test using the “Standard Method” which gives a housing requirement of 226 homes per year On each of these Hambleton has exceeded the set requirements: o Against the LDF target, since 2004 there has been 5,482 completions against a target of 4,800 dwellings, averaging 343 homes per year. o Since 31st March 2014, the start date for the new local plan, in all 2,739 homes up to early March 2020 have been completed against a requirement of 1,890 dwellings. Completions have averaged 457 homes per year. Development Progress since 1st April 2019 From 1/4/19 to early March 2020 there have been 596 gross completions, this is the highest annual number of completions to date, when results for the full year are available, and the final total is expected to exceed 600, given the current levels of activity. During the period 2018/2019, the gross number of homes completed was 475. Generally demolition numbers are very low for Hambleton. During 2019/2020 there were 23 notified demolitions of which only five sites saw loss of dwelling stock totalling 5 dwellings, see appendix 4, for details. Most demolitions were for replacement dwellings (which are excluded from HDC’s housing supply figures) or for other non-residential structures. Therefore, during the year 2019/2020 gross completions numbered 596 units, which equates to 591 net. The LDF target is 55% completions on Brownfield land, in 2019/2020 just 13.2% were completed on Brownfield sites, compared to 23.2% in 2018/2019. In 2019/2020, the total number of dwellings permitted on brownfield sites was 31% of the total. In 2018/2019, the figure was 37.6%.(Figure 2.1). During 2019/2020, 326 dwellings were permitted, with 57 homes gaining permission on three LDF allocated sites and 269 dwellings were permitted on windfall sites. Yet supply showed significant an increase over the figure in the 2018/2019 Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment as the draft local
