Housing Strategy
Our Housing Strategy for the borough was adopted in March 2010 and sets out our objectives for housing up to 2014.
Gedling Borough Council Housing Strategy 2010-2014 [711kb]
Our objectives for housing in Gedling
Our objectives for housing in Gedling are:
- Quality – Improving the standard of housing in Gedling
- Neighbourhoods – Building safe and strong communities
- Inclusion – Making sure everyone can access the type of housing they need
- Supply – Managing the supply of homes that Gedling needs for the future
The Housing Strategy does not cover how many new homes should be built in Gedling or where they should be located. This is dealt with by our Local Development Framework.
We have recently completed a period of consultation on a new homelessness strategy and social housing allocations policy. We expect to publish both these documents early in 2013, and we will update thsi page when we do so. If you have any enquiries in the meantime, please get in touch using the contact details at the right hand side of this page.
Tenancy strategy
We have adopted a joint tenancy strategy with Broxtowe Borough Council and Nottingham City Council, which sets out the matters that housing associations must consider when setting their tenancy policies. These policies will decide how they will manage social housing,and what type of tenancies they will offer to new tenants. Gedling Borough Council does not have any direct say in what type of tenancy is issued to a particular person.
