Affordable Housing in Glaisdale Parish - - (Entry last updated 20th January 2012)

Update October 2010**  Sanctuary Housing have now been granted planning permission to build the 11 housing units as set out on the revised plans. (see below) After some protracted negotiations with the landowners, ownership of the plot has now been secured and Sanctuary Housing have also been successful in obtaining the neccessary funding from the Homes and Communities Agency within the current financial year. This means that the work will go out to tender this autumn with the intention to commence building work in late January for completion sometime in November 2011.
