The Council are consulting on proposed changes to the Supplementary Planning Guidance (SPG) on Affordable Housing.

We want your views on the way the Council is looking to calculate affordable housing transfer values (i.e. the amount that social landlords pay a developer for affordable housing units) as part of Section 106 agreements. This is explained in section 6.3 and Appendix A of the document.

We are also proposing to update some of the references in the document to national planning policy and the Local Housing Market Assessment to ensure it is up to date.

Section 9 is also proposed to be updated to make it clearer that local lettings policies are needed for affordable housing that is developed on affordable housing exceptions sites.
