In our view, it is essential for the Council to adopt a figure in excess of the Standard
Method/LHN on the basis that it has historically delivered materially in excess of it; yet any
consideration of an upward adjustment to the LHN is absent from the local plan itself or its
evidence base. If this is not rectified, then the local plan if adopted in its current form will
be unsound for want of justification given that its housing requirement is completely adrift
with the evidence base
A simple 10% buffer in this case is
considered ineffective, not positively prepared nor creates for a justified strategy as
required by NPPF paragraph 35.

Policy SS1 focuses the majority of new development within the Planned Limits of
Development (PLDs) of Oakham and Uppingham, and on land adjacent to Stamford North
as part of an urban extension. The Council sought to rely on a new sustainable community at St Georges Barracks in the
withdrawn Local Plan 2018-2036 and the failure to achieve suitable funding was the
principal reason the plan had to be abandoned. Seeking to rely on the site, alongside the
Woolfox Opportunity Area, risks a similar scenario.

Land East of Uppingham Road, Oakham is located adjacent to the
built-up area of the town and north of Burley Park Way. The site adjoins the existing Planned
Limit to Development for the County’s most sustainable settlements at Oakham and the
site represents a great opportunity to create a sustainable, distinctive and thriving
neighbourhood that forms a logical extension to the Town

the approach within Policy SS1 and SS3 to remove the PDLs from Smaller Villages and limit development to a maximum of 5 dwellings conflicts with NPPF paragraph 35
