Strategic Housing Market Assessment
The Peak Sub Region Strategic Housing Market Assessment (SHMA) was completed in December 2008 to help identify key issues and solutions to housing in the area. The study covers High Peak, Derbyshire Dales and the remaining parts of Peak District National Park, within Derbyshire.
The overall purpose of the SHMA is to assist the local authorities within the housing market area to decide on issues such as:
- What tenure and cost profiles are needed for future house building and what size and type of housing is required to deliver sustainable communities across the sub-region;
- How partners can ensure the delivery of planned levels of new housing choice given that this will represent an increase in development;
- What needs to be included in Local Development Frameworks and Housing
Strategies to maximise affordability, improve delivery and shape the future housing market in the HPDD sub-area, and;
- How the analysis can be updated in the future.
