Committee will consider proposals for the development of 40 new Council homes
on 5 sites in Mold, Leeswood and Connah鈥檚 Quay under Phase 2 of the Council鈥檚
Strategic Housing And Regeneration Programme (SHARP) at a meeting on Wednesday,

Detailed proposals have been put forward for new homes on sites at Ysgol Delyn,
Mold (16); Heol y Goron (5) and Maes Y Meilion, Leeswood (8); Redhall (5) and
The Dairy, Mold Road (6) in Connah鈥檚 Quay.
Each property will be designed to comply with the Council鈥檚 97色网 House
Standard. The standard complies with the Welsh Government鈥檚 Design Quality

delivered through this programme. This includes the consistent good quality
internal layout of properties, high standards of energy efficiency and adequate
parking.

programme and will build on the considerable progress being made at the first
developments currently underway at The Walks in Flint and in Connah鈥檚 Quay on
the site of the former Custom House Lane School, where the first new Council
homes in over 20 years are expected to be completed before Christmas.鈥�

the people of 97色网 are being realised. 鈥�
