- How can this proposal alleviate the housing crisis in the UK? This is in response to the
housing crisis, so we should address this issue and how we think our economic model
will help with it.
- "Less than one in ten properties in many parts of
the UK are affordable to single house-buyers,
according to the homeless charity Shelter. "
-Once we make this garden city, how will we
make it affordable to everyone?
- restoring confidence in the housing market.
invest in affordable housing, improve
mortgage lending, regulate private rental
sector, ensuring a mixed programme of urban
regeneration and new settlements
- strong central government leadership
- adequate funding mechanism for 'new'
settlements (one that captures land values)
- building are of a high standard of design and sustainability
- The Barker Review’s final report set out a range of policy recommendations for
improving the functioning of the housing market:[29] Government should set out a
goal for improved market affordability; additional investment to deliver additional
social housing; ++++++++a Planning-gain Supplement to ensure that local
communities share in the value of development;++++++++ a Regional Planning
Executive to provide advice on the scale and distribution of housing required;
allocation of additional land in Local Development Frameworks; a Community
Infrastructure Fund to help to unlock barriers to development; and Local authorities
should be allowed to “keep” the council tax receipts from new housing
developments for a period of time.

- I think the Community
Infrastructure Fund
would count as public
money.
- "Nine million potential buyers are renting homes, often at outrageous cost; evictions are up and, if current building rates continue,
Britain will have two million too few homes by 2020."

- scale
- pace of change
- physical geography
- Community lead
- different roles
- the patron - holder of the vision
- the promoter - short term
- the partners vested long term interest
- need money for renovation
- Patient investment
- Garden cities took a long time to make money
- focus on long term gain
- RADICAL IDEA
- We don't need new funding as we are
retrofitting, adapting, reconditioning,
recycling / up cycling existing built form
and shaping into a modern day garden city
- Sorry I still think we
need a viable funding
option.
- Agreed, retrofitting, adapting, reconditioning, recycling all
costs a lot of money and we deffinitely will need funding! We
need a case study which shows where funding came from
for retrofitting dwellings.
- Found a few of these; they talk
about non-profit developers,
investments, developers financial
incentives, community groups,
realtors, business improvement
associations, media, contractors,
property managers, government lax
on codes and tax
- Aimee
- economics of reusing existing housing,
retrofitting and adding on to it and making it better
by rearranging the internal parts, adding on
balconies and improving the surrounding
landscape. I could perhaps find some case
studies such as Park Hill flats and see if they
have been an economic success compared to
demolition and building from scratch?
- offer incentives the new homes bonus for local
planning authorities, CIL, and neighbourhood
planning for local people. Pat Willoughby 'Planning
and Delivering New Garden Cities'
- local planning authorities
responsible for leading way,
planning ahead, unlocking land,
securing funding for infrastructure
- New home bonus is public money. I am not
sure if CIL and planning for local people
counts as public money or not.
- Long term plan
- invest in peoples environment,
'healthy places healthy faces' (or
something catchy referring to
people?)
- reduce NHS
costs, prevent
ill health
before it
occurs
- stats : over past 50 yrs public
spending on NHS has risen from
3.4% to 8.2% of GDP
- Over the next 50 years
(2062) this will rise to 20%
- reference : Appleby,J.,
Spending on health and social
care over the next 50 years:
Why think long term?, pl The
King's Fund, London, 2013.
- Canadian Public Health Association
study (2012) costs 27 times more to
achieve a reduction in cardiovascular
mortality through clinical intervention than
it does to achieve the same results
through local public health spending
