Setting a new housing figure

"This is a major decision which will inform development across the District for the next 15 years. I have impressed on the working group the importance of reaching a decision which will benefit residents across the District, setting the scene so we address housing need more widely across the District in both urban and rural communities."

The Members of the Local Development Framework working group are: Cllrs Beamer, Hobbs, Honychurch, James, Moorse, Stevens and Roache.

The next meeting is scheduled to take place on Tuesday 26 October 2010.
