Notes
Strategic Policy 2 (SP2): New and Affordable Housing
Local Plans are expected to promote sustainable patterns of development. This includes meeting, as a minimum, the identified level of housing needs for their areas in full. National policy requires us to use a government-set
methodology to calculate the housing needed in our area, and to meet or exceed this number.
For Hastings, this requirement is currently (August
2026) 686 homes a year. This equates to a requirement for 12,348 net new homes over the lifetime of the Plan.
