The Board was reminded of the key ambitions contained in the West Kent Housing and Homelessness Strategy 2016-2021 undertaken in partnership with Sevenoaks District Council and Tunbridge Wells Borough Council.  The report outlined the key themes for a Tonbridge and Malling Housing Strategy which would allow the Borough Council to establish its housing priorities, to plan for meeting current and future need and to govern the effective delivery of housing related services.  An updated project plan and revised timetable was set out in Annex 1 to the report.

Following consideration by the Communities and Housing Advisory Board, the Cabinet Member for Housing resolved that:

(1)   The key areas of work for the forthcoming Housing Strategy be endorsed and the Housing Strategy Project Plan, as set out at Annex 1 to the report, be approved.
