West Lindsey must plan for 515 homes a year
West Lindsey has to plan for 515 new homes a year, 2,575 over 5 years.
No brownfield cover figure for West Lindsey. Only 72% of the sites on this council's brownfield register give a housing estimate, so its capacity cannot be totalled. We publish the cover figure only where at least 80% do.
That is a gap in the register, not evidence that West Lindsey has no brownfield land.
Delivery
Over the three years to March 2025, West Lindsey delivered 4,544 of the 3,219 homes it was required to: 141%. The government's published consequence: no consequence.
What is on the brownfield register
58 live sites covering 55 hectares, of which 14 have no planning permission yet. 16 of them give no housing estimate.
A council short of land has to find more, and the 17 August 2026 planning framework widened what counts as grey belt. This page describes the council's position. It does not say whether any particular piece of land would get permission.
