The purpose of this Supplementary Planning Guidance (SPG) is to set out the Council’s approach to delivering affordable housing through the planning system. It sets out the Council’s planning requirements and mechanisms for securing and delivering affordable housing within the Vale of Glamorgan. This SPG updates and replaces the Council’s previous Affordable Housing SPG (2017) and has been produced to support the policies of the Vale of Glamorgan Local Development Plan (LDP) which address the affordable housing needs within the Vale of Glamorgan as evidenced in the Council’s latest Local Housing Market Assessment (LHMA 2015), and Affordable Housing Viability Assessment (AVHA 2015)
