Aberdeenshire sets out £150m housing plan
Aberdeenshire Council has published a plan for an investment of more than £150m in the delivery of affordable housing over the next five years.It estimates that more than 2,350 homes could potentially be built across Aberdeenshire over the period, with around 590 suitable for households with particular needs, and 73 fully accessible for wheelchair users.The Strategic Housing Investment Plan (SHIP) was considered by the council’s communities committee in November. The Scottish Government has now provided feedback on the document, commenting that ‘engagement between local authority officials and their housing partners in Aberdeenshire is strong’ and saying that the plan ‘clearly fits’ with the authority’s local housing strategy.The majority of homes (1,949) are proposed for social rent, with 126 for mid-market rent and 279 for low-cost shared equity purchase.
