Housing consultation to close 1 April 2011

Central Bedfordshire Council is inviting residents and businesses to help shape a new Housing Strategy that will guide provision for the five years between 2011-2016.

The strategy, which sets out the vision and aims for housing in Central Bedfordshire, places housing matters in context with other social affairs such as crime reduction, bringing communities together, enhancing neighbourhoods and improving health.

It is an over-arching document that encompasses plans such as the Homelessness Strategy, housing for older people and the new Empty Homes Strategy, which was published in November.

The strategy also explains how the council works, and will work, in partnership with other organisations to deliver its housing plans.

Public consultation on the Housing Strategy will start on Tuesday 4 January 2011 and last for 12 weeks until Friday 1 April 2011.
