How much money will SKDC make from the New Homes Bonus Scheme?
Example
Using 22/23 SKDC data of number of houses in each council tax band and using 2023/2024 council tax band rate and the number 14,020 new houses.
If we assume the council tax banding allocation is a relatively similar percentage split for the new builds this will generate a New Homes Bonus total of approximately 145 million in today's prices. 6 years of the average council tax per home. Which averages £10,000 per new house. Is this the motivation for excessive new house building, above actual need?

Totally support that SKDC should have an up to date LPA, Why has it taken 4 years to get to this stage when most of the Policies are the same, some with a few narrative changes, Generally there is no improvement in the ambiguous lines in policies that allow circumnavigation by officers and developers. Concluding in Inspectors who revel in such flexibility.

I cannot support any ‘plan’ that advocates widespread destruction of the local countryside.

I was only made aware of this by a neighbour who found it by chance and felt obligated to tell surrounding neighbours what’s being proposed and provide feedback. The report is buried in a website not easy to find by the users. A poor start to get public feedback. Been a long time since 2020 and most people had forgot about the original vision. Communication to the areas where development is being considered needs improvement and cover those not computer literate. None of my surrounding neighbours except 1 where aware of this report the day before comment closure
