  • Maidstone Borough Council
    Maidstone Borough Council Final report March 2010 Foreword Foreword This report describes the Strategic Housing Market Assessment (SHMA) undertaken in Maidstone Borough in 2009. It contains a wide ranging examination of the housing market, and it conforms to the major Government Guidance on the subject. It also provides part of the ‘evidence base’ on which a wide range of planning and housing policies can be based. Acknowledgements A large-scale assessment of this nature is a collaborative effort and Fordham Research wish to thank all members of the SHMA Steering Group for their support, guidance and contributions. We would also like to thank those local stakeholders who participated in the discussion and whose local knowledge and views have been immensely helpful. It is also important to recognise that this report would not have been possible without the co-operation of the general public who gave up their time to take part in household surveys for Maidstone Borough. Their assistance is gratefully acknowledged.
