Policy SP19 - Sites EL1, EL2 and EL3 - Sites East of Luton should be removed from this Local Plan as there is no unmet housing need from within Luton that will require any intervention from NHDC under the Duty to Co-operate. This is because the true and up to date unmet housing need from Luton is only 2,000 and Central Bedfordshire Council has allocated 20 sites with a capacity of 8,850 dwellings which more than meets this shortfall.
It goes without saying that references in this MM to Strategic Masterplanning of the SP19 site is also not required.

An up to date assessment of houses built in Luton since 2017 could substantially reduce the number to be provided by NHDC and Preston Parish Council is of the view that this should be undertaken before the NHDC Local Plan is finally made so that valuable Green Belt land in North Hertfordshire can be retained and protected.
2100 houses are allocated on North Hertfordshire Green Belt land to accommodate Luton’s unmet housing need. NHDC, Luton Borough Council, Bloor Homes and Crown Estates signed a Statement of Common Ground in December 2020: ED224. Central Bedfordshire was not included in this document even though it will accommodate some of Luton’s unmet housing need. An up to date assessment of houses built in Luton since 2017 could substantially reduce the number to be provided by NHDC and Preston Parish Council is of the view that this should be undertaken before the NHDC Local Plan is finally made so that valuable Green Belt land in North Hertfordshire can be retained and protected.
