A partnership between Joseph Rowntree Housing Trust (JRHT) and local developer Gateway Developments has submitted a planning application for 114 much needed affordable homes off Sim Balk Lane, not far from York College.
The proposal includes a range of 1, 2, 3 and 4-bedroom homes within landscaped grounds. Around 60 per cent of the homes would be for social rent with JRHT, with the remaining 40 per cent being shared ownership where buyers purchase a share in a home with the remaining share rented from JRHT.
