Barlby Road New Homes Consultation Round 1
Introduction Last year the Council held a series of discussions and workshops with local communities. Feedback from these events identified a number of key priorities, including new homes. The Council has responded by announcing a programme for delivery of 600 new homes, including a minimum of 300 Council homes for rent. One of the sites that has been identified with potential to build new homes is at Barlby Road . Aims of today: We want your views about what you would like to see on this site, in order to help us shape our proposals and ensure that we have listened to the community.
First Stage Sites The ‘First Stage’ sites aim to deliver a proportion of the overall programme. It is proposed that a mix of different types of homes is delivered including council homes to rent, and open market homes. Grant funding has been secured from the Mayor’s office to assist with the delivery of council homes to rent. One of the four sites, shown below, that have been announced is the Barlby Road site. The aim is to deliver as many council homes to rent as possible to meet the pressing need for genuinely affordable housing .
