Respondent: West Midlands Housing Association Planning Consortium
Agent: Tetlow King Planning
We would like the Local Plan to acknowledge the role of Housing Associations in providing affordable housing in SW. It would be beneficial to see the Council recognise the role of Housing Associations and encourage developers to have early active engagement with Housing Associations in the preparation of planning proposals. Early engagement enables Housing Associations to have an active role in the planning and design of developments to ensure that the development addresses local housing needs and meets the management requirements of WMHAPC members.
The WMHAPC would like to remind the Council of the role that housing associations can play in aiding the Council to bring forward affordable housing delivery through the redevelopment of brownfield sites in sustainable locations and the regeneration of urban areas both inside and outside the ring-road including the social and economic benefits that arise from such opportunities.
