31/10/2024 - Deliverability of affordable housing through the s.106 process

Arun, like most other councils in the country, is currently having to deal with huge issues around the delivery of affordable housing on sites as part of the requirements of section 106 agreements.

We are getting an increasing number of developers coming to us because they have been unable to dispose of affordable units to Registered Providers (RP’s). This because of recent changes to how RP’s access grant funding.

In the face of an increasing number of discussions and formal proposals to amend s106 agreements, the council are seeking to produce a framework document to be used in progressing these discussions and determining these applications on the basis that developers are getting no interest from RPs and are unable to dispose of these units to RP’s. This framework will ensure that discussions can be progressed with a degree of certainty.
