19/06/2015 - Updating the Shared Ownership Local Priorities Cascade

The Executive Member for Health and Wellbeing submitted a report on proposed amendments to the Council’s Shared Ownership Local Priorities Cascade process.  The Housing Strategy and Development Manager provided a summary of the process and the revisions proposed and how this would bring the process in line with the priority cascade within the Choice Based Lettings rental scheme. 

 

Councillor K Warnell expressed concern about the lack of shared ownership properties on the market.  The Housing Strategy and Development Manager explained how the proportionality worked and described what other shared ownership schemes and options were available to those who could not access the property market in the normal way.

 

The Committee received the report and recommended to the Executive that the minor changes highlighted in this report be supported.

 

RESOLVED  - that (A) the changes to the Shared Ownership Local Priorities Cascade be noted; and

 

(B)       the Executive be requested to approve the minor changes in (A) above.
