Councils commission Housing Study
Approximately 23,000 Vale residents will be receiving a postal
questionnaire as part of the production of a joint Local Housing
Market Assessment.
Residents are being asked their views on a wide range of matters
which will allow the councils to assess housing needs and demands
within their areas.
The assessment will be used to inform Local Development Plans
and Local Housing Strategies and will provide information essential
to support negotiations to secure affordable housing on new
developments.
An external research company, Fordhams, has been commissioned to
undertake household surveys, analyse data and produce a final
report
Residents have been randomly selected, and the Council is urging
individuals to complete and return forms by June 8.
All information collected will be treated in the strictest
confidence and will only be used for the purpose of the survey.
All returned forms will be entered into a £100 draw.
Any further information or help in completing the form can be
provided by telephoning James Eve on FREEPHONE 0800 163 231
