About the Housing Strategy
The 
The Housing Strategy statement updates the information provided in South Hams District Council’s 1999 submission. It describes the Authority’s intended plans for housing related activity over the next three years.
Homelessness Review and Strategy
The Council, as an excellent authority, is exempt from the statutory duty to publish a new homelessness strategy, based on the results of a further homelessness review, within the period of five years of their last homelessness strategy being published. However, South Hams District Council has developed a revised strategy based on an up-to-date review of homelessness in the district.
The revised Homelessness Review and Strategy (2008-2013) will direct our Housing Advice Service over the next five years and aims to meet identified gaps in services within the available resources for South Hams residents. The Strategy has been developed through a combination of research and feedback from partner stakeholders and services users.
