Alternative options considered

This option will support the acquisition programme by utilising available funds to maximise the opportunity to provide additional housing provision across the borough. Whilst consideration has been given to the Housing Needs Survey, property bidding data in this instance has indicated a high demand for 3 bedroomed properties in the area.

Option 2 - Do Nothing
This option would lose the opportunity to deploy approved funding to help ease the demand for properties on the housing waiting list.
