WAVERLEY Council is calling on residents, housing providers, developers and anyone with an interest in affordable housing to help it set the right priorities for new affordable homes in the borough.

The council is working on its new housing strategy, which will set out the type of residential development residents will be able to afford, either to rent or to help them get a foot on the housing ladder. The council has appealed for as many people as possible to fill out a questionnaire.

Housing portfolio holder Carole King said: “We will be providing housing in a range of tenures, from council homes to rent and shared ownership schemes with housing associations. I hope residents will help us to set the right priorities by completing the questionnaire.”
