Affordable Housing Viability - Brief Review

Introduction 1.1.1 In 2009/2010 Harrogate Borough Council had an Affordable Housing Economic Viability Assessment (AHEVA) carried out to provide part of the evidence base to the Council in developing affordable housing policies for its Sites and Policies Development Plan Document (SAPDPD) – part of the Harrogate District Local Plan. This study used a number of assumptions to test the potential impact of planning policies on development viability at a strategic level including the level of affordable housing (proportion of homes that should be affordable on residential market developments), the point at which it is requested (threshold level) and the tenure. These were correct and reflected practice at the time of undertaking and publishing the study but of course could not have foreseen future changes to a combination of market conditions (values), costs and Government policy. 1.1.2 The research informing the AHEVA (including seeking of soundings from development industry stakeholders) was carried out in the main during September to December 2009, though kept open through to the September 2010 study completion date. 1.1.3 The AHEVA assumptions need to be fixed at a point in time, to allow the appraisal stage to go-ahead. -
