Additional Housing. The Housing Land Audit 2020 is an assessment of the housing land supply available in the Highland Council area as of 1st June 2020. With regard to specific plans for Lochaber, the audit identifies and provides a programme of expected housing delivery over the initial and two following 5-year periods and includes expectations for the delivery of new homes up to and including the year from June 2035. Based on this audit an additional 411 homes are planned for delivery in Lochaber between 2020 and 2025, with a further 219 to be completed June 2025-May 2030. While additional housing is planned, it should be noted that the demographics for the region indicate a likely static/ decreasing total population for the area, even if the number of households is anticipated to increase. The map below indicates the areas identified for housing development in Lochaber during this period, highlighted in pink: Sites included in the Audit are housing sites under construction, sites with planning consent, sites in the relevant adopted or finalised Local Plans/Development Plans and, as appropriate, other buildings and land with agreed potential for housing development. All new housing development, redevelopment, conversions, and subdivisions are included. In addition to sites allocated in the relevant Local Development Plans (LDPs), there are a number of other sources of development that provide additional supply through windfall (WF) sites. Where such a site has planning permission on 1st June 2020 and will provide 4 or more housing units it has been included in the audit. No one size housing model appears to fulfil all requirements for older people living independently in the community. Irrespective of the housing developed it should meet a range of needs within the local area. Accessibility, adaptability, and flexibility are key elements to providing housing for people as they become older.
