Statutory housing duties and how P站色情片 and its partners will tackle the housing issues in our area.

The Council's Role

The Council no longer has its own housing since transferring stock to ACHA in 2006. However, as the Strategic Housing Authority, the council has a number of statutory duties and responsibilities in terms of delivery and investment of affordable housing, and improving house condition across all housing sectors. The documents below set out our statutory housing duties and show how P站色情片 and its partners will tackle the housing issues in our area. They detail the housing issues, the positive improvements that we want to see and what we are doing to help make these changes happen.

Housing Need and Demand Assessment (HNDA) 2021

Local strategic planning for housing is driven by the assessment of housing need. The Housing (Scotland) Act 2001 places a duty on local authorities to develop Local Housing Strategies, informed by an assessment of housing need and demand in their area.

Community Housing Assessment Toolkit (CHAT)

Demand for housing in P站色情片 and Bute is high and many communities and organisations are keen to improve local supply of housing. One of the initial challenges can be to define what housing is required in the community, whom it is for, and where it is most needed. 

The P站色情片 Community Housing Assessment Toolkit (CHAT) is a framework to support organisations to assess housing needs within local communities, which will help to plan and deliver the right homes in the right places. By assessing localised information, the toolkit can identify specific local needs, and will help you approach your housing need in a structured manner that meets Scottish Government criteria. This allows housing needs across the local authority area to be assessed against standardised data; streamlines decision-making; makes partnership working easier; and supports funding applications.

The CHAT is for any group who have an interest in housing development in the P站色情片 and Bute area.  This can include: Community Councils, Local Development Trusts, Local employers, Registered Social Landlords, Private developers, land owners and estates and Special Interest Groups, etc.

The Local Housing Strategy team can support organisations to undertake CHAT assessment for your community.   

If you are interested in using the CHAT tool to carry out a community housing need assessment, please contact the housing strategy team for further information at localhousingstrategy@argyll-bute.gov.uk or call 01369 800503
