The consultation on the Revised Strategy for Growth is now closed.
Please note we have consulted specifically on changes we are proposing to the 'Emerging Strategy for Growth'.
In Bovingdon we are planning to deliver 230 new homes from 2024 to 2040, a 5% decrease from our proposal in 2020.
We believe that this strategy will deliver the following key benefits for Bovingdon:
Around 70 affordable homes, including:
18 First Homes for affordable home ownership; and
52 Genuinely Affordable / Social Homes to Rent.
Specialist housing provision including wheelchair accessible homes and provision for older people;
Contributions to help fund new GP capacity;
New community facilities, including the provision of a new scout hut; and
New green spaces, including play spaces, public parks and food growing areas.

Proposed Status (Revised Strategy 2023)
Bv01: Grange Farm
Retained for 150 homes
Bv02: Chesham Road / Molyneux Avenue
Retained for 40 homes
Windfall Allowance
This sets out the amount of homes that we think will unexpectedly come forward for development over the period of our Local Plan (2024-2040) that are not formally allocated (referred to as 'windfalls'). This has been calculated by assessing past delivery trends.

This sets out the number of homes that currently have planning permission, but have yet to be completely built out. They form part of our 'housing supply', but they don't need to be allocated by the Local Plan.
