Prioritisation criteria

Local connection will inform the prioritisation of households for the allocation of properties.

Local connection

Top priority will be given to households with a local connection to Larkfield ward or Aylesford South and Ditton ward, in line with the definition of local connection in the Council’s Housing Allocation Scheme.

Households in temporary accommodation will have their local connection considered based on their last settled accommodation before placement in temporary accommodation, or through family. This is to ensure they are treated fairly, regardless of where they are placed in temporary accommodation.

If no households meet local connection prioritisation criteria, the LLP will not apply.
