We have produced an Affordable Housing Developers'
Pack to explain our affordable housing policies for
developers.
This comes in the form of a set of documents explaining how we
propose to meet the challenging affordable housing targets for
North Somerset set out in our
Affordable Housing Delivery
Plan (AHDP).
We have a subsidy free approach to affordable housing on
residential sites with more than 15 units or 0.5 hectares with
details of the transfer prices outlined in our
Affordable Housing Transfer Price guidelines.
In 2005 we also worked with
Bristol City
Council,
South Gloucestershire
Council and
Bath and North East
Somerset (BANES) Council to commission research about housing
needs in the West of England.
To find out the results of this study please download the
following documents:
Our requirements for all new build affordable housing projects
can be found in the
North Somerset Affordable Housing Scheme Development Standards.
It is expected that all new affordable homes, developed by both
housing associations and private developers, will meet these
standards unless a specific waiver is given by the council's
Housing Development Team.
