Interesting...
So if a developer knew about these limits, they could reduce the size of a housing development to 1 hectare exactly, and therefore eliminate the need for archaeological conditions. Or you could split a large development into phases of just under a hectare...
The fun could never cease.
I'm confused how a smaller development is non-strategic. If you have a strategy (I would use the word 'plan') than calls for an increase in housing, any action that furthers this plan is by definition strategic.
