Smarter Investment
• £10.2 million for DFGs brought forward but
service transformed
• Delivery targets depend on £19 million of
indicative investment from HCA packages
• Capital receipts from land sales will fund
homes without grant
• Average RP grant must be £ 20,000 per home
• Continue cross subsidy
• CLT and private sector loans are self financing
• Aspiration for match funding for homeless
hostel and sheltered housing re-modelling and
additional funds for empty homes
Key messages
• You are a critical part of delivery
• (Cornwall has an ambition to deliver and create
opportunities
• Rural areas must begin to be self financing
through departures
• We need to deliver in the top 20 settlements
• There needs to be stronger and smarter
relationships between sectors in Cornwall
