Cornwall Council has succeeded in bidding to take part in a new initiative that will help smaller local building companies develop new affordable homes for local people.
The initiative sees the Council join forces with Government agency Local Partnerships to pilot a model that hopes to unlock small sites for delivery by small and medium-sized construction firms.
Construction of the projects would be financed by Cornwall Council with the homes transferred to Council ownership and let to local families as affordable housing.
Over coming weeks, the Council will be contacting many small and medium-sized construction firms with details of the project. The Council is also encouraging local builders to proactively make contact with it if they are interested in taking part.
