Greater Cambridge Local Plan Preferred Options

Representation ID: 59517

Received: 11/12/2021

Respondent: Pocket Living

Agent: Quod

Representation Summary:

The affordable housing in a Build to Rent scheme is tenure blind (indistinguishable from the private) and is managed by the same operator. There is therefore no need to prescribe how it is distributed provided all tenants have access to the same on-site services and amenities.
