The Greater London Authority has issued a prospectus seeking bids for London Housing Zones which offer a range of tools and funding methods to unlock the deliver of new housing. The bids need to be submitted by the end of September but ideally need the involvement of partners and a clear political statement of support for the actions the Local Authority would take as part of a successful bid.
The Cabinet will be presented with proposals for a Barking Town Centre bid and other opportunities and asked to approve the development and submission of a bid(s) in line with the proposals.
