and safe communities which have an improved environment and a<br />

thriving economy’. A key theme is developing sustainable<br />

communities.<br />

Results <strong>of</strong> <strong>Selby</strong> <strong>District</strong> SHMA 2009<br />

5.62 The Council is keen to encourage developers to provide a suitable<br />

mix <strong>of</strong> homes within the <strong>District</strong>, to meet the needs <strong>of</strong> all sectors <strong>of</strong><br />

the community, including supported or special needs, based on<br />

evidence provided by the Strategic Housing Market Assessment 19 .<br />

5.63 This evidence helps to ascertain the range <strong>of</strong> dwellings, which need<br />

to be built across <strong>Selby</strong> to help satisfy market demand. Analysis has<br />

shown where there are particular pressures within the housing<br />

market and demonstrates that overall demand exceeds supply<br />

across the <strong>District</strong>. If the broad aspirations <strong>of</strong> households were<br />

translated into how future development should proceed, then the<br />

split between property types would be houses 60%; flats 8.5%; and<br />

bungalows 31.5%<br />

5.64 The study compared general market supply and demand in a<br />

number <strong>of</strong> sub-areas (see Figure 10 below) to understand the type<br />

and size <strong>of</strong> market housing to be delivered within the <strong>District</strong>:<br />

• East, north-east, <strong>Selby</strong> and Tadcaster do not need any more<br />

1 bed properties.<br />

• All areas require more family housing in 2, 3 and 4 bed<br />

houses.<br />

• Demand exceeds supply for terraced housing in central and<br />

east.<br />

• Demand exceeds supply for bungalows in the <strong>District</strong> as a<br />

whole but particularly in northern, <strong>Selby</strong>, Sherburn,<br />

Tadcaster and Western.<br />

• More flats are needed in south east.<br />

was undertaken by consultants, Arc4<br />
