We request that The Core Strategy on housing reflect the location and distribution of the Borough of Ribble Valley population as it currently is. Whilst we recognise the need for future housing in the Borough of Ribble Valley we request that the the housing needs of the Borough should represent the same proportion as population distribution. Therefore, as the town of Clitheroe currently constitutes 25% of the total Borough of Ribble Valley population, the proposed new developments within this town should also equate to 25% of the total requirement, thus ensuring a fair and equitable approach to future housing needs.
