Local Lettings Plan - Southgate Bath
Decision Maker: Cabinet Single-Member Decision
Decision status: Implemented
Is Key decision?: Yes
Is subject to call in?: Yes
Purpose:
To create a local lettings plan for newly built social housing in the Southgate development. The plan is to create a diverse and sustainable community that is appropriate for this mixed development
Decision:
The Cabinet Member agrees to approve the local lettings plan for this Somer Community Housing Trust scheme.
Reasons for the decision:
Creating a sustainable community in this high profile area of Bath will have positive benefits to residents and visitors to the area. Moreover it will contribute to the socio-economic future and stability of the area.
Alternative options considered:
To allocate the properties strictly through the Choice Based Letting system without a local lettings plan was also considered. Without a local lettings plan, the new community may lack social and economic diversity in a very high profile area of Bath
