New Local Plan

Respondent: Southend Borough Council - 2050 Safe and Well
The housing options selected should be based on delivering the needs that will arise from the population changes anticipated to occur over the next 30 years, so that the mix of housing that the Local Plan signals needs to be developed will meet the needs of the population change that will occur over that period.
It is also important that sustainability becomes a requirement of developers in the proposals they bring forward and that this is signalled as a key requirement by this Local Plan once it is in place.
The Local Plan should also signal the planned integrated infrastructure and public transport options that are being developed, so that these can be taken into account by developers when they are working up their proposals.
