Will the Council inspect the property?
Properties must be of a very good to excellent standard and condition.
During the negotiation process the Council will arrange an inspection of
the property to ascertain its suitability for inclusion under lease
arrangements. It will be inspected to confirm that the property meets
very high structural and decorative standards. Properties must comply
with the Housing (Standards for Rented Houses Regulations 2008) and
also with all planning and Building Regulation.
Will the Council purchase the property from me?
In some instances the property owner may agree with the Local Authority to include an "option to purchase‟ and/or a “right of first refusal” as a condition of the lease. These clauses give the Local Authority the option to buy the property at intervals during or at the end of the lease or oblige the owner to first offer the property to the Council should he/she decide to sell. Both parties must be in agreement to include this condition and the specific terms must be negotiated.
Will the Development Plan tell me what is happening in my area?
A Development Plan sets out the land use zoning objectives for an area.
The land use zoning objectives for the County are set out over a series of 14 maps and an interactive webmap.
Certain uses which may be permitted in principle or open for consideration within each land use zone is set out Chapter 13 of the Development Plan.
Proposed development within an area occurs when a developer (public or private), or an individual, proposes and obtains the relevant planning permission. This ‘development management’ process is separate to the Development Plan making process. Proposed development is required to accord with the provisions of a Development Plan.
