00:00Farsley could get its first new council homes in more than 50 years, under plans for 25
00:06affordable flats. Leeds City Council wants to redevelop the former Richmond House Care
00:12Home site on Richmond Road, with one and two bedroom apartments for people on the Leeds
00:17Homes Register. The scheme was reduced from 33 flats, after concerns from nearby residents
00:24about its size, traffic and pressure on local services. Councillor Craig Timmons says demand
00:30for affordable housing is growing while acknowledging those concerns. The planning application is
00:36currently out for consultation, with a decision to follow later after feedback from residents
00:42and planning officers.
