CS 3 Balancing Housing Provision

  • In seeking to provide a balanced housing market, the Council will require housing proposals to take into account and reflect local housing needs in terms of the tenure, size and type of dwellings.
  • The Council will particularly seek the provision of two and three bedroom dwellings suitable for occupation for all sectors of the community including newly forming households, young couples and expanding families.
  • New housing for the elderly, and supported and specialist accommodation will be encouraged in suitable locations.
  • The Council will encourage new dwellings to include “Lifetime Homes” principles within their design so that they can be readily adapted to meet the needs of those with disabilities and the elderly.
