Council Reveals £130m Housing Plan

Liverpool City Council is planning to build 2,000 new homes over the next three years and bring empty homes back into use as part of a £130 million investment in housing. A £20m fund to support first-time buyers will also form part of the housing delivery plan. The plan involves making council-owned brownfield sites available to registered providers for housing at no cost. The council said the plan would be financed through borrowing and by using capital receipts and that it had also bid for £10m of funds through the housing market renewal transition fund and could potentially receive revenue from the new homes bonus.
