  • Sites for specialised housing developments including affordable housing, rural needs housing, specialist housing for older people, self-build and custom housebuilding.
  • Sites for Gypsy and Travellers pitches.
  • Sites for economic development including employment land for offices, industrial, distribution, retail, tourism and other commercial uses.
  • Sites for community facilities.
  • Sites for leisure and recreation.
  • Sites for nature where new wildlife habitats could be created.
  • New Local Green Spaces (green areas of particular importance to local communities).

Sites for housing should be capable of accommodating at least five new homes or a minimum of 0.25ha and economic development capable of accommodating 500sqm of floorspace.
