Community Housing Working Group
Early in 2006, the Parish Council set up a local “Community Housing Working Group” (CHWG) to advise on how best to achieve some much needed “Affordable Housing”. This is required by not only those already living and working here, but also young people who cannot afford to live in Newton & Noss but are needed to rebalance and regenerate our ageing community.
The CHWG has investigated the options available for providing some new houses and reported regularly to the Parish Council. Below you will find all the information produced together with the Committee’s Final Report, a document which may be helpful to other rural communities with similar housing difficulties.
Now the work has been finalised, the Group has been wound up but the Parish Council wishes to acknowledge with thanks the Committee’s very considerable amount of time and personal commitment over the past few months, very ably chaired by Robin Hogg. Also the support given by the Planning Officials from South Hams District Council and the Community Council of Devon has been most helpful.
