A look at housing in the future
GOVERNMENT inspec tors check Ribble Valley Borough Council again quite soon - this time look ing, according to a council report, at how it has addressed the issue of bal ancing the housing market. The report is on the draft
The ground floor also includes a cloakroom, utility area and fourth

version of a new communi ty strategy being developed by Government order and covering several areas of Valley life. It emphasises that housing is a complicat ed equation, involving not only renters-out such as the council itself and private landlords, but also volume house builders, estate agents etc. So many houses have
been built that planning permissions are now being trimmed. "There remains massive interest in continu ing the most recent rate of
iNEWSf -B •WW- ' IV 'W •• -v. compiled by TIM PROCTER _
building from landowners," says the report, pointing out that the trimming is at the direction of national, regional and county author ities. The reduction in building
is welcomed by many Val ley people, but does add to the difficulties of addressing the affordability problem. The council is able to
influence estate developers to include a few "affordable" houses or allow them to go where no other type of dwelling would be allowed. But scope is limited. Among ideas for making
the housing market more fluid are reducing the num ber of privately-owned
properties, encouraging energy-efficient measures to trim householders' costs, improving council-owned homes, offering extra caring support to enable people to live in their own house longer and giving people involved in housing a clear er link to council policies by way of forums and consul tation. The strategy has other,
bolder hopes, some aimed at the "stark reality" of many Valley residents working outside the borough - and perhaps too many relative ly low-paid jobs within it. Clitheroe in particular is seen as a possible "dormito ry town" in a decade or two.

WHAT IS A BUY TO LET MORTGAGE - YOU MAY ASK?
Back in. 1996 there was a shortage of rental property. A group of lenders, backed by the Association of Residential Letting
Agents, began to offer mortgages to people who wanted to buy properties and let them out. Since then, the market has grown enormously. As working patterns change
and people become more mobile, there is greater demand for rented property and short-term lets.
