Assessment of sites submitted during ‘Call for Sites’ consultation G. Site proformas - separate document Disclaimer The Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment does not allocate land for residential development but provides evidence, alongside other studies, to inform the allocation of land through the Local Plan. It assesses whether sites are suitable for housing, provided they are not required for other purposes, in order to meet plan targets. It identifies constraints to development and considers how they might be overcome. The inclusion of a particular site in the assessment should not, therefore, be taken as an indication that it will be allocated or granted planning permission for housing or any other form of development. All future planning applications will be considered individually and will be assessed against policies in the development plan and National Planning Policy Framework. 3 2016 Wigan Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment (December 2016) 1. Introduction and background 1.1 This is the Wigan Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment 2016 Update. It is a key component of the evidence base to support the delivery of sufficient land for housing; to meet the borough’s need for more homes; and to inform housing policies within the Wigan Local Plan, including the emerging Greater Manchester Spatial Framework (GMSF).
