Large site stewardship<\/h5>\n<p>To require that community assets are owned and stewarded by a democratic and accountable body and promote opportunities for CLTs to commission and codesign more of these assets with councils, developers and housing associations.<\/p>\n<h5>3. Community-led regeneration<\/h5>\n<p>To enable residents to form a CLT to have greater agency in the redevelopment of social housing estates and other important assets in partnership with councils, housing associations and developers, including reviving the regulations for the Right to Transfer.<\/p>\n<h5>4. Affordable housing pre-development finance<\/h5>\n<p>To provide for enablers of community-led development to agree on strategic grants with Homes England, the Welsh Government and the GLA to draw down finance for pre-development work, working with communities to acquire sites and gain planning permission for community-approved designs, and bring these de-risked projects to partner developers and housing associations.<\/p>\n<h5>5. Leasehold and commonhold<\/h5>\n<p>To replace leasehold with commonhold as the default arrangement but maintain exemptions for CLTs, and ensure reforms protect the CLT governance model.<\/p>\n<h4>A community ownership strategy<\/h4>\n<h5>6. A community ownership fund<\/h5>\n<p>To enable the purchase of any asset that the community deems of social, economic or environmental value and with a funding stream to develop new sector-based intermediaries.<\/p>\n<h5>7. A community growth lab<\/h5>\n<p>To provide a \u00a3150m endowment to support the development of the \u2018missing market\u2019 of delivery and finance intermediaries, which will support community ownership at scale.<\/p>\n<h5>8. A Community Right to Buy<\/h5>\n<p>A right of first refusal to buy assets of community value and public assets for sale at an independently valued price.<\/p>\n<h4>Rethinking land<\/h4>\n<h5>9. Review policies and funding for nature restoration and farming<\/h5>\n<p>This will incentivise support for community ownership of nature and farming projects.<\/p>\n<h5>10. Establishing land commissions<\/h5>\n<p>To reform land markets, embed social purpose in land ownership, and promote greater community ownership of land.<\/p>\n<p>Tom Chance, CEO of the Community Land Trust Network, commented: \u201cUsing CLTs,<br \/>\ncommunities now own over 2,000 affordable homes, green spaces, shops, pubs and<br \/>\nworkplaces in England and Wales, with many more in the pipeline. But for many, reaching<br \/>\ncompletion has been an incredible struggle against a system that doesn\u2019t recognise<br \/>\ncommunity agency.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf we want to build enough high quality community homes and get investment into left<br \/>\nbehind communities we need to see these policy changes.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"mk-custom-module-container\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CLT Network has published its 2024 Community Land Trusts Manifesto, which enables community-led developments to account for at least 5% of UK housing development by 2029.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":21,"featured_media":137729,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[304],"tags":[571,747],"stakeholder_rel_tag":[],"contributor_rel_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-137727","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-planning-construction-news","8":"tag-housing-crisis","9":"tag-property"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.9 (Yoast SEO v26.9) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Charity proposes policies to secure 5% of UK housing development by 2029<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"CLT Network has published its Manifesto, which enables community-led developments to account for at least 5% of UK housing development by 2029\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/planning-construction-news\/clt-network-manifesto-uk-housing-development\/137727\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Charity proposes policies to secure 5% of UK housing development by 2029\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"CLT Network has published its Manifesto, which enables community-led developments to account for at least 5% of UK housing development by 2029\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/planning-construction-news\/clt-network-manifesto-uk-housing-development\/137727\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Planning, Building &amp;
