A "community-led process to ensure that what emerges reflects the community consensus". Good luck with that.

My experience is that communities can be very conservative. No one votes to increase the density of their community even if (in London at least), increasing the density may the only way to increase supply.

Estates like the Heygate, the Aylesbury and Robin Hood Gardens aren't noted for their "walkable street" patterns but some campaigners seem wedded to them!

You can only bring the community with you if there is a genuine social rented offer that, at the very least, ensures no net loss of social rented homes.
