Applying density thresholds on identified ‘Urban Regeneration’ sites restricts the most efficient and effective use of suitable, available, and achievable sites (key criteria for Stage 2 of the LAA) without giving full consideration to its development potential through the development management process.
The number of dwellings achievable on a site should, of course, only properly be judged as part of the development management process through the submission of a planning application and as such a capped threshold approach should not be set through the Stage 2 process of the LAA – particularly in the case of ‘Urban Regeneration’ sites.
