Hidden homes & Infill sites
Zoom meeting
Time; 8:15 - 9.15am
The need to provide housing to meet the demand is ever increasing. Local Authorities, Housing Associations and developers are all looking for parcels of land, be it dormant or derelict, for potential sites to build new homes. But how practical or economic is this and what are the potential pitfalls?
Come and join us as our panel discuss:
-
the benefits of small sites to local character and communities;
-
the potential capacity to increase supply;
-
the challenges and opportunities;
-
dealing with planners and other legislation;
-
maximising the external realm.
