Shared Ownership. |
An up date on Aruns local
plan, the plan has been put on ice by the planning inspector (from The planning
Inspectorate) for up to 18 months, leaving the District exposed to Planning by
appeal, where Developers apply for permission, the Council rejects it and they
go to the same Planning Inspectorate on appeal inevitably winning because there
is no local plan in place, (its a farce and makes a mockery of localism)
It's a game that many
Councils across the country are loosing due to the chips being stacked against
them, the latest needs assessment says Arun needs 764 houses per year, but this
is not for our Indigenous population, but for purchasers who are coming from
London and other wealthier areas who are attracted by the areas lower prices
and better quality of life,
How do we counter this
obvious unfairness, I personally think we need a massive programme of building
shared ownership property targeting our young people and getting them on the
housing ladder, purchasers only need to buy 25% of the property which locally
means anywhere between £40-50,000, they rent the other share at a subsidised
rent, this would make up our numbers and because the houses/flats would be a
higher density would negate the need to build larger family houses which
developers prefer with the space that's expected, it would solve the housing
need and help to limit the housing foot print, if we could build these homes
with higher eco standards, eg with solar panels engineered in the design then
we would help the environment and help new buyers with lower energy costs,
Until next month
