Changes to the Council Housing Allocations Quota System

17/04/2025 - Changes to the Council Housing Allocations Quota System

That the Assistant Director – Housing and Revenues amends the Housing Allocations Quota System, as follows, for the allocation of all future Council housing:

Band 1 (Urgent Housing Need) 54%
Band 2 (High Housing Need) 30%
Band 3 (Medium Housing Need) 15%
Band 4 (Low Housing Need) 1%

The increase of Council housing allocated to those applicants in band 1 will ensure our homes are allocated to those people in most need and meets the aims of the Preventing Homelessness and Rough Sleeping Strategy 2025-2030.
