Cheshire East Council approves five-year housing strategy


Cheshire East Council has approved a new housing strategy – setting out the aims and resident focused outcomes for housing until 2023.

The strategy fulfils the council’s ambition for jobs-led, economic growth across all areas and the acknowledgement that ‘housing is essential’ to support this continuous growth.

Driven by the council’s Local Plan, the housing strategy highlights the provision for a housing requirement of 355 new affordable homes each year of the strategy. By working in partnership, the council will facilitate this requirement, providing homes of the right type and in the right place to continue its ambition for good quality of place and the health, wellbeing and quality of life for our communities.

Cheshire East’s ‘guarantee’ to residents is to have a place to live which supports their health and wellbeing and contributes to a better quality of life. The council recognises that good quality, safe and affordable housing is essential to meet this goal.

The strategy aims to stimulate the housing market, support regeneration to support quality of place, improve the housing offer for an ageing population, support jobs-led growth and support the council’s medium-term financial growth strategy.

Councillor Ainsley Arnold, cabinet member for housing, planning and regeneration, said: “Our new housing strategy contains our ambitions for facilitating the delivery of affordable housing alongside a robust, well-managed rental and sales market.

“We have made the decisions with feedback and engagement from residents to ensure the best possible outcome for housing that meets the needs of Cheshire East.”
