New house building and redevelopment

As a strategic housing authority, we try to understand and respond to housing needs. We do this by -

• making best use of housing
• encouraging new house building
• seeking funding to refurbish and improve housing
• delivering housing lead neighbourhood redevelopment
• acquiring, demolishing and replacing substandard housing

Part of delivering our housing growth plan includes building new council houses. We are also working with partners to build modern new houses for sale or for rent from housing associations or for shared ownership and private rent. This is all done within the framework of the Hull Local Plan.

The major sites where building is still taking place are -

• Hawthorn Avenue
• Ings
• Orchard Park
• Preston Road
• Kingswood

We are also working to encourage wildlife and biodiversity in our schemes.
