The Housing Strategy 2026–2030 has been adopted by Tendring Council following cabinet approval and a six-week public consultation. The strategy sets out priorities for managing and improving council homes, preventing homelessness, and supporting the delivery of more affordable housing across the district. "We are proud to have retained our own council housing at a time when many authorities have not, and as the largest provider of social housing in Tendring we take that responsibility seriously. For council housing tenants, the strategy outlines continued investment in safety, compliance, and long-term repairs. The strategy will guide the council’s housing work until 2030.
