Medway Local Plan (Regulation 18, 2024)

Representation ID: 3841

Received: 08/09/2024

Respondent: Mrs Maureen Wade

Representation Summary:

Affordable housing will be anything but affordable. It has been shown that these houses will be purchased by 'buy to let' landlords or by people migrating from other areas of Britain resulting in an increase in population and the housing need will never diminish. Affordable housing should be sold/rented only to people who have been resident in Medway for 3-5yrs to ensure local people are given a chance to buy or rent.
