1 Community Housing Plans

2 At GHA we have Community Housing Plans for each community letting area which are shaped by local people. A local forum for each community letting area, made up of tenants, applicants and community representatives, meets each year to review the previous year s lets and propose the percentage of lets in the area that will be given to the seven applicant groups (see page 3 for details of the applicant groups). The Community Housing Plan delivers on GHA s commitment to giving local communities a greater say in how homes are let in their area.

3 What has been decided by the local Community Housing Plan Forums? The forums are restricted to influencing only those applicant groups where GHA is not limited by legal and regulatory duties. This means that when the Community Housing Plan is drawn up for each area, we will have to make sure enough properties are available for customers affected by our demolition and regeneration programme, referrals from Glasgow City Council and for people who are considered to be in urgent housing need. This will be based on a number of factors both locally and city-wide. We need to be fair and open in the way we allocate our housing. The Community Housing Plan Forum won t have any control over individual cases, including any forum members who are themselves applicants. What are the applicant groups? When someone applies for a home, their housing need is assessed and they are placed into one of seven applicant groups. A description of each applicant group is detailed below: 1: Applicants with no housing need 2: Applicants referred by Glasgow City Council who need to be rehoused urgently, including those living in accommodation below the tolerable standard and applicants assessed as having an urgent need for rehousing by GHA staff 3: Applicants in housing need such as non-mobility medical need or overcrowding 4: Applicants with a connection to the area through community or social support 5: Mobility group: Applicants who have a medical priority for mobility reasons 6: Under-occupation group: GHA tenants who are under-occupying their current property (3-bedroom or more) and wish to move to a smaller home; and those tenants in a 2-bedroom property who are affected by the UK Government s Bedroom Tax. 7: Sheltered Housing: Applicants aged 60 or over who have been assessed as requiring sheltered or very sheltered accommodation. 3
