Housing

 

Smithy CloseWelcome to the Housing Department at St Edmundsbury Borough Council. The team is made up of two main areas of work.

Housing Development Team

We work to develop affordable housing in the borough through partnership with local housing associations and developers, as well as work to identify the level of housing need and set priorities to meet the need in the borough. We also monitor empty homes and work to bring long term empties back into use.
