Housing standards

Representation ID: 7111

Received: 01/09/2026

Respondent: The Richardson Family; the Tattersall Family; the Manley Family; and Bluefield Sandbach Limited

Agent: Lichfields

Representation Summary:

The respondent notes that national policy requires Local Plans to address the housing needs of different groups, including setting targets for accessible and adaptable homes built to M4(2) and M4(3) standards. They consider any requirements for accessible housing should be supported by robust evidence demonstrating local demand to ensure future housing provision appropriately reflects identified needs. The respondent also argues that evidence should underpin any requirement for homes to meet Nationally Described Space Standards. They support an evidence-led approach to setting accessibility and space standards, ensuring that policy requirements reflect genuine local needs while remaining justified, proportionate and deliverable within future residential developments.

Representation ID: 7113

Received: 01/09/2026

Respondent: The Richardson Family; the Tattersall Family; the Manley Family; and Bluefield Sandbach Limited

Agent: Lichfields

Representation Summary:

The respondent promotes a site at Hollybank Farm, Sandbach, for residential allocation within the emerging Local Plan. They state that the site is well contained by existing development, roads and railway infrastructure and is subject to few physical or technical constraints. The site is described as being within Flood Zone 1, close to local services, schools, public transport and Sandbach railway station. The respondent considers the site a sustainable location for growth and argues that development would be consistent with national policy relating to housing in accessible locations near settlements and railway stations. They request allocation of the site for housing to help meet identified development needs.
