The Council is doing six times more work than is necessary due to inflated Standard Method housing needs assessments. This is diverting resources away from much needed Council services and wasting rate payers’ money.

This unnecessary consideration is another result of inflated housing need.

The planning of the Lower Thames Crossing is more realistic in its assessment of development growth. The Volume House Builders only consideration is to maximise profit. They will not build out the ‘false housing need’ allocated sites until the inward migration market is favourable. This will lead to planning blight and, negative impacts on the local economy and food supply.

Serious consideration needs to be given to on-going sea level rise and its impact on designated habitats and landscapes over a much longer period than the Local Plan, measured and modelled over centuries rather than decades, and more in keeping with the useful life expectancy of buildings. A large part of Medway forms part of the London flood plain and is considered expendable by higher authority.

Gravesham, like Medway, will be compelled to adopt unrealistic Housing targets. A local housing needs assessment for Gravesham will prove that a more realistic target is actually needed for a Borough that is currently less densely populated than Medway.

This seems to be adding insult to injury to the residents of Medway especially those in most need of a safe comfortable dwelling. Medway needs 4,278 new dwellings to satisfy natural growth, of these, 1,200 must be for social rent (Council Houses) See Local Housing Needs Assessment 2021.

Medway only needs 4,278 dwellings between now and 2040. Unfortunately, much of the Housing in the pipeline won’t be intended to meet local housing need, and Medway Council will be seen to be in the pockets of the Volume House Builders.

Medway Council are wasting time and effort and rate payers’ money on doing unnecessary work because no one in this authority will stand up to Government dictates and work for Medway’s residents.

Current housing development appears to be targeted at wealthy inward migration and this seems set to continue at the expense of local residents and local democracy. Please note sub-standard, poorly designed houses at Cliffe Woods selling for £800,000.

The Council Planners formulating the 2122 – 2140 Medway Local Plan may need those figures.
