Housing strategy
The council’s housing strategy sets out the framework for the council to meet the housing challenges in the borough. It aims to ensure that the resources the council has to tackle housing challenges are co-ordinated to maximise the benefits.
The tenancy strategy sets out our approach to granting tenancies for affordable housing in Chesterfield. In line with government guidance, registered providers of affordable rented homes in the borough, including housing associations, will need to take account of our policy when granting tenancies. Please select the link above to view the strategy.
A joint strategy with Bolsover District Council and North East Derbyshire District Council has been completed which addresses homelessness across North Derbyshire. You can view the strategy by clicking on the link above.
