The vision for the development includes adhering to the city council’s policy of offering a minimum 40 per cent affordable housing on site, with the other homes being made for the open market, housing for the university and college staff, specialist housing for the elderly, and student accommodation.
The group told the Local Democracy Reporting Service that it is proposing “a range of densities across the site”. At this stage it is looking at between 47 and 52 homes per hectare.
