Affordable Housing SPD

Representation ID: 71592

Received: 17/02/2020

Respondent: AC Lloyd Homes c/o Delta Planning

Agent: Delta Planning

Representation Summary:

The document relies upon the most recent definition of affordable housing taken from the July 2018 NPPF. However, the soon to be released Government White Paper is to introduce the concept of ‘First Homes’, which is due to replace ‘starter homes’, currently discussed within the NPPF’s definition of affordable housing. If this SPD is to have any sense of longevity, we suggest that it should include ‘First Homes’ as an accepted form of affordable housing.
