A lack of space is to blame for an expected shortfall of 6,000 new homes in Nottingham, city council officials have said. .
The issue was discussed during a Housing Scrutiny Committee meeting on Monday, April 15, Matt Gregory, the Head of Planning Strategy and Geographic Information, said: “For areas like Leeds, which is essentially a city region within the local authority boundaries, it is relatively easy to provide 30 per cent uplift."
In Nottingham, some of the main sites include the Boots site, where development has commenced for 600 homes, 207 within Nottingham and the remainder within Broxtowe, and Stanton Tip where 500 homes are proposed. There are also plans for 1,000 homes in the wider Greater Broadmarsh area. “No decision has been taken about what that might be. To some extent it is also about the market and seeing that within the wider context of the city plan of where other housing will be delivered.Mr Gregory said he was “reasonably confident” the expected housing delivery in Nottingham would be deemed acceptable. However he said he could not be 100 per cent certain.
