In August 2018, the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG) published ‘Garden communities: prospectus’ to support the Garden Communities Programme.

The purpose of the prospectus is to encourage bids from local authorities and private sector partners for proposals for new garden communities, and offers government assistance to help deliver their development. This forms part of the government’s overarching aim to have increased housebuilding to an average of 300,000 net new homes by the mid-2020s.

The programme currently supports 23 places that intend to deliver over 200,000 homes by the middle of the 21st century, but the prospectus aims to ‘champion ambitious councils’ to deliver further housing and growth.

While the prospectus does not prescribe a template for a garden community, the government will prioritise proposals for new garden towns (more than 10,000 houses), but will consider proposals for smaller garden villages (1,500-10,000 houses) on the proviso that they demonstrate exceptional quality or innovation, develop brownfield sites, or have the ability to be able to expand in the future.

The communities should be capable of offering opportunities for ‘significant long-term housing and economic growth in a local area’, and proposals should demonstrate how the new community would fit within the housing need for the market area, also being mindful of expected population growth.

Proposals are invited from local authorities and private sector partners, but submissions from the latter must be expressly supported by the former.

Proposals should be submitted via MHCLG’s DELTA portal by 9 November 2018. See [https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/garden-communities-prospectus here] for more information and to download the prospectus.
