The table supplied is considered a useful way to identify the potential housing capacity within the LAA. However, the description of ‘rural development’ is not considered particularly reflective of the sites available. It is suggested that this category would be better subdivided into ‘village expansion’ and ‘new settlements’. Given the nature of such sites and that the relevant factors to assess the pros and cons differ significantly, a distinction between the two would be a noteworthy benefit. For instance, such a distinction helps to highlight the role that expansion to existing villages can play in supporting existing communities. St John’s College is promoting site SR4 at Cliffe Woods for development and support Medway Council progressing the assessment of this site to Stage 2 within the LAA process. Site SR4 would provide a logical next phase of development to the existing village and facilitate prompt delivery of homes with further information supplied within the Vision Document prepared and submitted alongside the Call for Sites, as well as these representations. St John’s College would be very happy to liaise with officers to discuss the deliverability of Site SR4 as soon as convenient. Further supporting evidence has and continues to be prepared and can be made available as part of those discussions.
