Housing Market Assessment for the Cambridge Sub-Region

 

 

Agree to the immediate joint commissioning of a sub-Regional Housing Market Assessment instead of a local project and to agree that this is an inescapable commitment for expenditure in the next 3 financial years. This will enable the Council to benefit from the economies of scale of a joint project with other authorities, it is likely to attract funding from other government agencies, and it will comply with the emerging government specification for future Housing Market Assessments.
