Housing land availability

The District Council has a requirement to provide 4,600 new dwellings between 1991 and 2011, in accordance with the East Sussex County Structure Plan.

Planning Policy Guidance Note 3 (Housing) advocates a plan, monitor and manage approach to allocating land for development. Therefore, annual monitoring of the housing land supply is carried out, which helps to provide the information on the amount of land which will need to be released in Phase 2 (i.e. 2006-2011).

If you have a site that you wish to be considered for inclusion in the new emerging Local Development Framework then please complete the Site Checklist Form (see the relevant documents section of this page) and return it to the planning department.
