SOUTH WORCESTERSHIRE ANNUAL MONITORING REPORT 20101944.0 SAVED POLICIESFor the purpose of this AMR, policies within the adopted Local Plan (June 2006) havebeen monitored to identify whether they have been implemented effectively. Havinggained an understanding of the key issues within the District through the contextualindicators, individual policies have been selected in each chapter and their performanceassessed through Local Indicators.The Local Plan was adopted on the 23 rd of June 2006, and no High Court challengeswere made during the 6-week period that followed. All the policies were automaticallysaved for 3 years until 23 June 2009. Wychavon subsequently applied to the Secretaryof State via the Government Office for the West Midlands (GOWM) to save any policiesbeyond this date. Confirmation has now been received from the GOWM regarding whichpolicies have been saved - details of which are available on the Councils websitewww.wychavon.gov.uk . The “Saved” Local Plan policies remain a material planningconsideration until they are superseded by the Development Plan i.e. The SouthWorcestershire Development Plan. New Planning Policy Statements could alsomaterially affect the weight given to a saved Local Plan policy.5.0 GENERAL STRATEGY - HOUSING5.1 Housing TrajectoryThe housing trajectory monitors the past performance, present levels of completions andpredicted future level of housing supply. It is a requirement of Core Output Indicators H1,H2(a), H2(b), H2(c) and H2(d). This housing trajectory deals with both adopted andemerging policy. It can give indications to possible levels of future supply and our abilityto meet future targets. The housing trajectory is an important tool in the ‘plan, monitor,manage’ process as it can lead to a review of housing policies through the LocalDevelopment Framework. It should be noted that the first five years of the housingtrajectory form Wychavon District Council’s five year land supply position.Creating a housing trajectory to the year 2026 is made more complicated for a numberof reasons:- The AMR housing trajectory must include Wychavon District Council’s 5 YearLand Supply; unadopted development plan documents cannot be included in thefirst 5 years of supply; though it is expected that the South WorcestershireDevelopment Plan (SWDP) will be adopted with in the next 5 years.- The adopted (2008) West Midlands Regional Spatial Strategy and the emergingWest Midlands Regional Spatial Strategy (Preferred Options, 2007) are shown astargets on the housing trajectory.- The effects of the current recession and economic downturn have beenconsidered in the trajectory.- Uncertainty with regards to infrastructure requirements and their role in enablingdevelopment sites to come forward. This will become more certain after theSWDP and accompanying evidence bases have been adopted.- Windfall sites have been omitted; this is line with recent guidance (PPS3).
SOUTH WORCESTERSHIRE ANNUAL MONITORING REPORT 2010195- Existing planning permissions (commitments) and local plan allocations areincluded in the trajectory (and will represent the only means of supply for the first5 years of the trajectory).- Growth that will take place in Wychavon but is related to Worcester City will notbe included in the trajectory (this will be discussed later).The following documents provide reference material and may assist in understandingthe context and processes involved in arriving at these figures.• Annual Monitoring Report (AMR) 2009 – Housing Trajectory (previous)• Housing Land Availability Report (HLA) 2010 – actual net completion rates, buildrates and commitments• Preferred Options Paper (October 2008) – Spatial strategies for phasing andpreferred commitment and location of housing• Land Supply Checks (2009) - with regards to the first five years of the trajectory).• West Midlands Regional Spatial Strategy (RSS) Phase II Revision Examination inPublic (EIP) Panel Report (September 2009).
