Abstract
Aims to help those who plan and build new places (local authorities, housebuilders, and developers) to: capitalise on the assertion within the National Planning Policy Framework that new homes can sometimes best be achieved through large-scale development which follows the ‘principles of Garden Cities’; plan to create new community assets that, right from the start, have reliable sources of revenue income for their long-term management; understand which assets can be managed by a stewardship body, the organisational models and funding sources available, and the legal frameworks necessary to plan for and establish a suitable stewardship organisation; facilitate grassroots community initiatives which can lead to more resilient communities in the long term; and learn practical lessons from projects which already employ a community stewardship approach.
