Amended December 2019
The Maldon District Affordable Housing and Viability SPD provides more guidance about the Council's approach to affordable housing provision. The SPD provides additional information about the way approved Local Development Plan policies H1, H2 and H5 will work.
It is guidance intended to help developers, landowners, registered providers and others applying for planning permission for affordable housing.
The SPD also provides more details about the Council's approach to viability assessments: when they will be required and the type of supporting information that may be sought with planning applications.
The Maldon District Affordable Housing and Viability SPD was originally adopted by the Council on 8 November 2018 and amended on 19 December 2019. This means that the SPD is a material consideration when the Council makes decisions on planning applications.
