In order to continue to deliver new housing developments at scale and pace and to reduce the strain on existing resources within the development team, approval is being sought to implement a further Housing Development Partnership.
The Cabinet report will set out the rational behind this approach and the areas in which a Partnership approach to development adds significant value, maximises the councils resources and enables new homes to be delivered more quickly, removing a significant amount of risk from the development process and will give certainty to the councils housing development programme.
The proposed development sites within a new partnership will be identified along with the likely costs of this programme and the numbers of new homes to be delivered.
A business case attached to the report will assess Partnership options open to the council along with identifying the preferred partnership option and procurement route.
