Growth Point
Following the announcement in July 2008 of Dover's success in
gaining Growth Point status, the local authority was invited
to submit expressions of interest for funding from the Community
Infrastructure Fund 2 (CIF2) and the three
schemes below have been shortlisted to submit a full
business case for further consideration.
Schemes funded through CIF2 should be vital
locally to unlock large housing development sites, enable the
acceleration of housing development and/or improve the
sustainability of major locations of housing growth. The
assessment was undertaken by the Department for Communities and
Local Government, the Department for Transport with support from
the Government Offices and the Homes and Communities Agency.
The assessment focused on 3 key areas of strategic fit with housing
and the wider social and economic benefits; transport impacts and
benefits and deliverability. A decision as
to whether these have been successful is expected later
in the summer.
