Affordable housing information for developers

Applications for Section 106 affordable housing funding are currently suspended due to limited funds. Please check back for further updates.

A supply of good quality, affordable, housing for local people is one of our main corporate priorities.

Grant funding is available to Registered Providers and others for the delivery of new affordable homes across our district. Affordability, the environment and value for money will be key considerations in assessing applications.

Applicants are strongly advised to thoroughly review the Guidance Note below, along with the council’s Housing Delivery Strategy prior to submitting an application.

If you would like to have an informal conversation with the Affordable Housing Team to discuss any prospective application, please email us at affordablehousingteam@southandvale.gov.uk.

Once completed, please submit your application form to our Affordable Housing Team via email affordablehousingteam@southandvale.gov.uk.

We work in partnership with several organisations and agencies to provide affordable homes to people living in our district.  On new developments, we aim for a mix of rented and affordable home ownership to be built on sites that have ten or more dwellings.
