HO1 HOUSING SUPPLY

The council will work with partner organisations and landowners to exceed the London Plan (2016) minimum target of 1,031 additional dwellings a year up to 2025 and to continue to seek at least 1,031 additional dwellings a year in the period up to 2035. The new homes to meet London’s housing need will be achieved by:

  • the development of strategic sites identified within the Local Plan;
  • the development of sites identified in the London SHLAA Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment (SHLAA);
  • the development of windfall sites and the change of use of buildings where there is no reasonable prospect of that site and/or premises being used for that purpose;
  • the provision of new homes through conversions;
  • the retention of existing residential accommodation and improvement in the quality of private rented housing; and
  • working to ensure that all new homes are occupied and vacant homes are returned to use to meet local and London needs;
  • where possible, supporting applications for self and custom builds that are in accordance with the relevant Local and London Plan policies.
