Hull seeks delivery partners for housing plan
The council has opened the process for hundreds of affordable homes to be brought forward over the next six years, with a deadline of 22 August.
Expressions of interest can now be submitted via the YORtender platform, reference number 100283.
The first homes are planned for the Pickering development in the west of the city, where the existing Boothferry Flats will be demolished, and also at Selworthy Close in Bransholme.
Portfolio holder for economic renewal and housing, Cllr Paul Drake-Davis, said: “We know that there is a housing crisis in the country, which shows no sign of waning, so it’s important that we bring forward our ambitious approach to bring affordable choices to the people of our city.
“We know that from listening to our residents when putting together our Community Plan that their top priority is safe, affordable and comfortable places to live.
“We now have our Housing Growth Plan in place until 2031, and these proposals form a key part of that.
“We’re now seeking prospective delivery partners across the construction industry who have a strong focus on partnership and working collaboratively, so that they can help deliver good quality Council homes across Hull.”
