Decision on local government reorganisation

The Government has confirmed that Surrey will move to a two-unitary council model following its review of local government arrangements. Read our full story and future steps.

Accessible homes

This is required for residential sites of 25 or more properties. You need to provide a housing mix plan showing which properties will be accessible.

Make sure that:

  • 10% of new homes meet the criteria for 'accessible and adaptable dwellings' set out in the Building Regulations M4 (2)
  • 5% of new homes meet the criteria for 'wheelchair user dwellings' as set out in the Building Regulations M4 (3)
