Affordable housing SIR: For the past few weeks I have noticed many reports in your paper of developers gaining planning permission either by application or appeals. But in these developments I see no mention of affordable housing. It seems to me that developers may be taking advantage of any loopholes in the planning application process. It was mentioned, in a previous letter, that there is to be a building scheme in Downside Road, Teg Down, and that the developer is ‘following’ planner’s guidance to build two- and three-bedroom dwellings. However, a supposed two-bedroom house would eventually be marketed in the region of £750,000.
Indy Leaders Want Free Internet For All Students, This Pilot Program May Be The Start

The city of Indianapolis and philanthropic partners are creating an internet network pilot program to give a small number of K-12 students free broadband access and potentially expand it county-wide for all students.
The $1.7 million pilot program will be based at six Marion County public and charter schools starting in February. A majority of the pilot is financed with $730,000 of the city’s federal CARES Act funding. Indianapolis Mayor Joe Hogsett says too many students in the county do not have adequate broadband for e-learning and other needs, but that could change if the pilot works and can find adequate funding.
