To consider the report on Section 106 affordable housing contributions.

RESOLVED to:

1.    Note the current position regarding funding capacity in the HRA to support the council’s HRA new build programme.

2.    Approve the use of £942,200 Section 106 affordable housing contributions to replace the HRA funding on the schemes at Newton Grove and Frambury Lane as described in the report.

Members considered the report of the Portfolio Holder for Housing which sought authority to utilise Section 106 affordable housing contributions for the council’s own development programme in addition to HRA funding.

In response to a Member question, the Assistant Director – Housing, Health and Communities said she would look into whether any Section 106 affordable housing contributions were still available to spend.

2)    approve the use of £942,200 Section 106 affordable housing contributions to replace the HRA funding on the schemes at Newton Grove and Frambury Lane as described in the report.
