June Update (PDF)
Our original plans for the consultation were:
- A public information exhibition to be held at the Parish Hall on 28th January;
- An ‘Open Forum’, for questions and clarifications, to be held at the Parish Hall on 16th March, and
- A formal written feedback process to invite comment, opinion and views on the initiative. After detailed analysis of the feedback, a report would be presented to a Parish Council meeting at a date to be agreed to enable the Council to decide whether or not to proceed with any detailed work and proposals.
- any housing would be only available for people with a strong connection to the area;
- a section 106 Agreement would be put in place to ensure that the housing created would be for rental in perpetuity (no right to buy);
- there would be no shared ownership schemes – only rental;
- no more than 15 units would be built over no more than 2 sites;
- all properties would be let on fixed term agreements, and
- no approach to the Parish for further Affordable Housing development for at least 10 years.
