Representation Summary:
Future proofing the new developments is essential and linked to the energy transition we all know is coming. Roadside charging infrastructure, home build with south facing roofs, capture of grey water. We need new designs for housing that will last and not the rubbish of the last few years, much of which is already needing repair. This won’t work if it’s just more of the rapid build profiteering. Also, where is the reference to social housing and starter homes, or the equivalent of bungalows for those wishing to downsize. The future can’t be unaffordable 4 bedroom homes for londoners.
