Councils are to get expert advice to help meet government
housebuilding targets. Local authorities will get an adviser under a new scheme
to enable their housing and planning teams to meet the pressures of reducing
homelessness and build more homes. The LGA unveiled the Housing Advisers
Programme for local authorities undertaking a specific project that delivers
and plans for new homes, reduces homelessness, or helps councils generate
savings or revenues. Under the scheme, councils can bid to get up to £14,000 to
fund an external adviser to review and develop their plans. Read more on the
LGA website.
