Residents urged to air their views on housing
Rother District Council is running a consultation on its homelessness services
- Published
Residents in an area of East Sussex are being urged to air their views on the future of housing and homelessness services following an increase in demand.
The Homelessness and Rough Sleeping Strategy Consultation will help shape how Rother District Council delivers housing and homelessness services between 2025 and 2030.
The consultation closes at midnight on Sunday.
Council leader Doug Oliver said demand for services relating to housing, homelessness and temporary accommodation have "a significant impact on the council's budget".
The strategy's key themes are reducing homelessness, increasing housing accessibility, and improving both temporary accommodation and housing.
Councillor Oliver added: "I would encourage all residents and businesses to respond to the consultation, but particularly those at risk of homelessness, or from the building industry and organisations involved in the housing sector."
