Housing Strategy 2004 – 2007

Our most recent Housing Strategy was adopted by the Council in November 2003. This document sets out our plans for the period 2004 – 2007. In producing the Housing Strategy the Council has balanced the national and regional priorities against identified local needs and the priorities of local people. The result of this process is a new strategic vision and six priorities for action to tackle housing issues in North Hertfordshire over the next three years:

Our Vision:

To meet the community’s needs for decent, high quality, affordable homes.

Our Priorities:

  1. To meet the community’s needs for affordable housing.To improve the quality and choice of homes available to those in need of affordable housing.
  2. To prevent homelessness by ensuring clear and effective housing advice and to provide good quality services and support to homeless households.
  3. To ensure that all housing in the district is of a decent standard and contributes to the good health of the community.
  4. To ensure that high quality supported housing is available for those who need it most and where it is needed most within North Hertfordshire.
  5. To deliver services that reflect the diversity of the local community.

Work to update the strategy from 2007 is currently underway.
