Closes 14 Nov 2024

Quality, Affordable Housing

In this section we will be concentrating on 'Section 1' of the Planning Consultation Document, for the Arlen Hill Development Plan. 

We plan to secure 50% of all new homes as affordable homes. We will ensure the houses in Arlen Hill are of good quality and safety, there will be no difference in quality from private home to council housing. Please comment on this part of the proposal in this section.
