Vale is committed to building 22,760 new homes by Mar 2031. (Top row in photo.)

Adding together all completed new houses, plus commitments, plus those allocated in both parts of our Local Plan, plus expected other housing not yet known about or planned for, totals 26,359. (Bottom row in photo.)

We could eliminate all further Allocations proposed in LPP2 (3420) and still meet our commitment.

Why on earth do Vale planners and Tory administration propose further Allocations at all in LPP2, let alone in the Green Belt? We are asking that question.

Oddly, some of the developers agree. They say they can’t deliver them. It’s too much.
