The WMHAPC welcomes the prospect of developments which will help to deliver the necessary infrastructure to communities. However, as currently worded, the policy direction does not take into account the viability aspect of 100% affordable housing schemes. The WMHAPC recommends that the level of financial contribution towards the provision of infrastructure should be exempt or reduced on 100% affordable housing sites in order to practically deliver the affordable homes without compromising on viability.
The Council should explore joint approaches and alternative funding mechanisms such as S106
agreements of neighbouring developments to aid in the improvement and development of new infrastructure of 100% affordable housing projects.
