104 B Aspinall In my opinion the current balance is about right.
105 Mr R J Aldridge We do not need any new homes tell the government we wll not build them.
The prices are rising in this area and more affordable housing for first time buyers is needed. Why must our children move
106 Ms P Melito
away to let strangers move in. The young have a right if they want to stay within their birth place.
107 Mr P S Reid It is a major issue - people must have a home to live in.
109 Mr C Fantides I do not see affordable housing a problem in this area.
110 Mr P Nippard If someone could explain exactly what constituted "affordable housing" then I might be able to comment.
111 Mr & Mrs Curtis Yes, to keep our younger people in the area, we need affordable housing to help the young get started
Affordable housing really means sub-standard little boxes made of "Ticky-Tacky", of which we have quite sufficient already.
As for allocating land for a new town, one only has to look at Basildon and South Woodham Ferrers to see the disaster that
this policy would lead to. I am old enough to remember when both were quite pleasant little villages. If you want a "broad
area of search" to erect yet more housing, I suggest you search south of the A127, an area which could hardly be made
worse. As for "Gypsy and Travellers" - they should be discouraged from any part of the District - remember what happened
at Cherry Orchard Way where the mess they left behind was an eyesore for months afterwards. (Crays Hill is the worst
112 A J Smythe
example of this blight). No more oppressive blocks of flats!
More schemes are needed to help young people, young families and the disabled to afford to buy housing. Encourage
113 Mr & Mrs Rowland people to take in "vetted" lodges? Scheme with local businesses/schools/hospital workers.
114 Mr & Mrs F Blake I don't consider affordable housing to be a major issue in this area.
115 Mr W J Wharnsby Affordable houses are a major issue
Yes affordable housing is an issue. The number of affordable homes available should be relative to the numbers of
116 R S Barton
"Rochford district residents" trying to buy their first property.
There seems to be a good balance generally. Affordable housing is necessary and good, but it needs adequate space and
117 W R H Beehag perhaps to be a bit out of town if possible. Perhaps Rawreth is a good area.
Affordable housing is a major issue everywhere, but especially in the Southeast. Young people in particular are affected by
118 Mrs I Sandell
the ridiculously high cost of property.
119 Mr C Gabell What figure? All developments at should include an element of affordable housing.
121 Mrs S J Attfield
123 Mr K Walcer
125 Mr D Brown & Mrs J Kirk
Yes, obviously affordable housing is an issue; the younger generation are unable to buy into the housing market when they
are on local salaries; they support the local industries and therefore deserve better. Young couples cannot even afford to
have children dur to the cost of housing and are leaving it latter until mid-thirties before even considering becoming parents.
This is a national disgrace we have become a nanny state where we are dictated to at every turn.
Any house over £250,000 far too high, take a lifetime to pay off mortgage if ever? Housing market price out by estate
agents to greedy. Empty shops cause they can't afford the rent, homless, no council houses left?
Build houses, flats etc. that are part owned by the council or a housing trust, retain your part ownership in perpetuity. Offer
incentives to move after a certain number of years. Only allow re-sale to low-income 1st time buyers (except in exceptional
circumstances).
