1. Around 1998, RPS Clouston Ltd, buried 700 tonnes of Asbestos on the former Yelland Power Station site - was North Devon Council involved in this decision?

2. Who authorised the asbestos to be buried under the old pump house?

3. Did North Devon Council ensure correct safety protocols were being followed during the asbestos removal and burying process?

The Council's Environmental Protection team within Environmental Health team has carried out a search of their records with regard to the site, however they confirm that they no longer hold any records prior to 2016. The council is therefore unable to answer the questions as set out in the request

The Council's Planning department has confirmed that Devon County Council are responsible authority for any planning applications for the site to which the request refers

1. Does the council have any policies or ones in development to support community led housing? If so, what are they and where do they appear?

2. Since January 2010, how many grants and/or loans has the council given to community led housing groups or organisations?

3. Since January 2010, how many land disposals or leases has the council made to community led housing groups or organisations?

4. Do you have dedicated staff to support community led housing? If so, what are their job titles?

1. The North Devon and Torridge local plan does not specifically mention community-led housing. However, any housing allocation within the North Devon and Torridge Local Plan would not preclude the involvement of a community-led housing group. Additionally, Policy ST19 will support ‘Affordable Housing on Exception Sites’ at Local Centres, Villages and Rural Settlements where the site is well related to or adjoining the defined development boundary where again, this could involve a CLT. Applicant provided with a link to the adopted Local Plan: 

https://consult.torridge.gov.uk/portal/planning/localplan/adoption/ However:

- The current Local Plan is under the very early stages of a review and future policy may look very different and provide a greater emphasis on the delivery of housing through community-led housing groups or organisations 

- The recent North Devon and Torridge housing crisis panel has listed community led housing as one of the possible 10 recommendations to increase the supply of affordable housing and one of the parts to this recommendation is supporting the lobbying by Middlemarch/the CLT network etc of Government to provide more funding for CLH in particular with more achievable deadlines 

- The draft Affordable Housing SPD has a section on community led housing drawing people's attention to this such models and the support available if funding is secured 

- Neighbourhood Planning Groups in North Devon could also create planning policy that could involve a community led housing group 

- Executive Committee outlined proposed allocations for the money June 2017 and Jan 2019 for 4 x phase one parishes. We then successfully bid for further funding in CHF 2018-20 that supported a further 5 x phase 2 parishes (legal set-up and 1 year of technical support) and 5 x phase 3 parishes (initial interest in affordable housing/CLH and housing needs survey). Committee originally approved allocations for the money then delegated authority was given to officers with the support of the Community Housing Fund Board (officer/member Board alongside Middlemarch). The Council has the Community Affordable Housing Grant application form and guidelines but this is still not published online as it is only allocated to the parishes in our programme where national CLH funding has been secured 

2. As follows: 

a)    Devon Rural Housing Partnership: £21,050 paid Summer 2017/18, £21,050 paid Summer 2018/19 and £31,050 paid 2019/20 to fund Devon Rural Housing Partnership for 3 years to support initial interest of parishes; generate a pipeline of parishes interested in community-led housing and start housing need survey process etc. so communities are ready to start the CLH process 

b)    Technical support: via Wessex Community Assets (now Middlemarch): 

a.       Phase one parishes x 4: £43,000 allocated for Wessex Community Assets over four years – CLT technical support to help them to establish themselves legally and deliver the affordable housing: £10,750 paid 2017/18, £10,750 paid 2018/19, £10,750 paid 2019/20 and £10,750 paid 2020/21 

b.       Phase two parishes x 5: A further £42,000 paid 2019/20 for legal-set up and 1 year technical support for 4 x phase 2 parishes

c.        £10,500 20/21 for a further phase 2 parish and £382 for additional work with Mortehoe & Woolacombe CLT

c) £33,058 allocated for internal temporary 7 month post of Community-Led Housing Officer to coordinate CLH programme across North Devon - Sept-March 2020

d) £40,000 allocated to add to the “Community Affordable Housing Grant” specifically for Housing Needs Surveys as the Awards 4 All grant is no longer supporting Parish Councils for this purpose – approved Executive 07.01.19. £21,497 paid for 6 housing needs surveys 

e) Feb 2020: £1,620 paid to Parracombe CLT for Register on Title work 

f) Nov 2020: 

a. £1,000 paid to Mortehoe & Woolacombe CLT for Community Affordable Housing Grant Application (Set-up) and

b. £41,000 paid to Mortehoe and Woolacombe CLT for Community Affordable Housing Grant Application (Feasibility)

g) March 2021: £40,753 paid to Georgeham Parish Community Land Trust for Community Affordable Housing Grant Application (Feasibility grant) 

h) March 2021: £16,004 paid to Parracombe CLT for Community Affordable Housing Grant Application (Feasibility)

i) Sept 2021: £440 paid to Braunton CLT for Community Affordable Housing Grant Application (Set-up – incorporation, membership and insurance) 

j) Sept 2021: £1,000 for Georgeham Parish CLT for Community Affordable Housing Grant Application (Set-up – public engagement) 

k) October 2021: An additional £984 paid for feasibility work for Mortehoe and Woolacombe CLT due to having to switch landscape architects 

3. North Devon Council has an agreed Heads of Terms for council owned land in Lynton and Lynmouth with Lyn Community Development Trust (this is dependent on working with leaseholders and replacing the tennis courts on suitable land). Feasibility work and pre-planning is currently taken place

4. We did employ a Community-Led Housing Officer (but the CHF allocation was only enough for a 7-month post  in 19/20. The Council used the CHF revenue funding mentioned in question two above to fund Middlemarch to directly support communities interested in community led housing but in-house at the Council there is a need for someone to manage the interface between Middlemarch and the Council/councillors/committees/Homes England funding and unfortunately this role has had to be squeezed into current Housing Enabling jobs that are already overstretched

How many phone calls and online contacts did your local authority receive about anti-social behaviour from 1st October 2020 to 30th September 2021? Please provide separate figures for phone calls and online contacts

6. Of the households in question 5, how many are currently in arrears on their rent by at least four weeks/one month (or any similar timeframe used by the council in its records, eg six weeks)? 

7. Please state how many applications for homelessness support since 1st April 2021 have been rejected due to the applicant being ineligible for public funds under No Recourse to Public Funds rules – this is an overall figure, not a monthly one. If a figure for NRPF is unavailable, please provide a figure for applications rejected due to the applicant being ineligible under s185 of the Housing Act 1996
