A Strategic Housing Land Availability
Assessment has been prepared as part of the evidence base for
the Local Development Framework.
The Assessment has been prepared to inform the
Core
Strategy and preparatory work on a Sites and Policies
Development Plan Document. The assessment has three key
objectives:
- identify sites with potential for housing
- assess the housing potential of these sites
- assess when they are likely to be developed
As well as identifying specific sites such as existing housing
allocations, a number of sites have been assessed that were
submitted to North Somerset Council in response to a call for
sites. Other sources of supply have been included to gain a
comprehensive picture of housing land availability across North
Somerset. Importantly the assessment does not allocate sites but
instead gives an initial overview of their potential.
The identification of a site does not imply that there is any
presumption in favour of any development proposal or that planning
permission will be granted should an application be submitted.

Assessment (pdf, Sept 11, 1.2MB).
A separate
Site Schedule Appendix (pdf, Sept 11, 6MB)
can also be viewed.
Tables 2A and 2B (pdf, Dec 11, 77k) of the
Appendix have been updated to include a broad summary of
the reasons for discounting the site through the SHLAA
process. Each site can be cross referenced to the plans
below. The 2A sites are those that have been subject to an
initial assessment and are considered broadly in conformity with
the emerging Core Strategy, although subject to specific
constraints resulting in them being discounted. The
2B sites are considered contrary to the emerging Core
Strategy. These updates to the tables have been submitted
to the Core Strategy examination as document ED/09b along with
the plans below.
