Benefits and Importance of Affordable Housing Delivery
Effective delivery of affordable homes in mixed tenure developments provides significant benefits including meeting housing need, reducing government funding pressures, and minimising issues associated with mono-tenure developments.
The benefits in effectively delivering affordable homes in mixed tenure developments in the city via policies HOU5 and HOU6 are significant, in terms of meeting affordable housing need by opening up access to land, reducing pressures on government funding and minimising issues associated with mono-tenure developments. This SPG is therefore important in creating clarity and transparency for landowners, developers and agents, in terms of how affordable homes will be delivered and will form a critical accompaniment to the Plan Strategy.
