Planning tomorrow

So far this year planning has approved over 300 flats and 16 houses. On the agenda tomorrow we have 179 more flats plus a 71 bed unit and 50 sheltered flats. We also have 15 houses to decide upon.

This follows the housing debate last week when a senior officer indicated that of the 16,200 homes Southampton has to provide over the next fifteen years, they have identified the sites for 12,000 but will not tell elected members what the percentage is for flats.
