Housing Strategy
The Housing Strategy sets Ashford Borough Council’s vision for
housing locally. The Strategy examines the housing and housing
related needs of people in the Borough and sets priorities for
action within the context of available resources.
Housing Strategy 2008-2011
The strategy sets out how the Council, in partnership with other
organisations, will work towards ensuring that all residents in the
borough have access to a suitable home and related support services
over the next 3 years. Extensive consultation with a wide range of
stakeholders has shaped our strategic priorities and action
plan.
The strategic priorities are:
- Increasing the supply of homes
- Developing sustainable communities
- Supporting independence
- Ensuring homes of decent quality
- Providing accessible information on housing options
Following a rigorous consultation process the Housing Strategy
2008-2011 has now been adopted by the Council. You can view
