Respondent: Mrs Linda Homer
I am in favour of supporting the Council delivering the affordable housing it needs. I would be in favour of changing affordable housing contributions on qualifying sites to 40% of habitable development area if this helps to meet affordable housing needs.
I am in favour of moving from a percentage calculated on unit numbers if this will incentivise developers to build more, smaller homes, increase the numbers of open market houses, increase housing density, reducing the amount of green belt land that needs to be used for development. This will also support the Council delivering the affordable housing it needs.
