Request:

I am writing to make an open request for information under the Freedom of
Information Act 2000. I am a local democracy reporter investigating the
state of affordable housing in Lincolnshire.

I have been asked by several council press offices across the county to
submit this as an FOI so I am hoping you can help.

Please provide the following information:

1) Definition of "Affordable":
* How does your council define "affordable housing"??
* Is it based on a percentage of the median income, a fixed price range,
or another metric??
2) Price Breakdown:
* What is the average price of an affordable home in your district?
* Are there different tiers or categories of affordable housing in your
district?
* If so, can you provide a price breakdown for each?
3) Housing Numbers:
* How many affordable homes are currently available in your district?
* How many affordable homes have been built in the last five years?
* Are there any upcoming projects or initiatives aimed at increasing the
number of affordable homes?
4) Challenges and Solutions:
* What are the primary challenges your district faces in providing
affordable housing?
* What initiatives or strategies has the council implemented or is
planning to implement to address these challenges?
5) Additional Information:
* Is there any other data, insights, or information you believe would be
relevant to our investigation?
* What is the council doing to support people getting on the housing
ladder? What's the council's view and is it a priority?

Decision:

Please find our response attached.

Your right of appeal:

If you have any queries or concerns regarding this decision, please email:
[South Kesteven District Council request email]

If you are unhappy with the service you have received in relation to your
request and wish to make a request for an internal review of the SKDC
decision, you should email: [South Kesteven District Council request email] and quote ‘FOI review
request’ in the subject line.

If you are not satisfied with the outcome of the internal review, you may
apply directly to the Information Commissioner for a decision. Generally,
the ICO cannot make a decision unless you have exhausted the procedure
provided by the council. The Information Commissioner can be contacted at:
