Renfrewshire Council has launched a public consultation on the new draft Strategic Housing Investment Plan (SHIP), which covers the period 2024 to 2029.
Comments and feedback received from this consultation will be used to shape and finalise the new Strategic Housing Investment Plan for the next five years.
The Scottish Government allocate grant funding to local authority areas through the Affordable Housing Supply Programme. Local authorities are required to prepare and update a Strategic Housing Investment Plan each year which sets out key investment priorities for affordable housing which will help to achieve the outcomes set out in Renfrewshire's Local Housing Strategy.
Affordable Housing can include a range of tenures and includes homes for social rent, low cost home ownership/shared equity, intermediate/Mid-Market Rent and private sector delivered below market cost housing.
Following the consultation period, all representations will be reviewed before finalising the Strategic Housing Investment Plan which will be submitted for approval to the Council's Communities and Housing Policy Board in October 2023. The final Strategic Housing Investment Plan will then be submitted to the Scottish Government.
We would ask that any comments are provided by email where possible. Comments can be sent to: strategyandplace@renfrewshire.gov.uk.
Whilst the easiest way to respond for most people will be by email, we can also accept comments by post. Please send any comments to: Economy and Development Team, Chief Executive's Service, Renfrewshire Council, Renfrewshire House, Cotton Street, Paisley, PA1 1WB.
Copies of last year's Strategic Housing Investment Plan as well as the current Renfrewshire Local Housing Strategy and annual updates are also available to view on this page.
