The Council is committed to playing its full
part in the national campaign to bring empty homes back into use
and has had an Empty Homes Strategy for the past 10 years the
latest one being 2018-2023. The Strategy details the aims and
objectives in tackling long term empty properties.
The strategy has been updated and it details the positive work that
has been achieved since 2018 and outlines a revised plan for the
next five years to tackle empty homes across all tenures within the
Arun district. The report therefore recommends the adoption of the
revised Empty Homes Strategy 2023 – 2028 which is appended to
the report.
