Carrick is a
local government district in
Cornwall,
England,
United Kingdom. Its council is based in
Truro. The main centres of population, industry and commerce are the city

The district was created under the

Truro Rural District.
It is named after the

Housing
On 9th January 2008 the ‘Regional Spatial Strategy for the South West’ (RSS) announced plans to massively increase house-building in Cornwall stating that almost 70,000 new homes would be built by 2026. The findings of the ‘Examination in Public’ into the RSS, were produced by the unelected
South West Regional Assembly. The original Draft RSS was published in 2006 and the new figures show another 53% increase. Figures for the new plans included -
Caradon – 6,500 housing units (an increase of 700 on the original document),
Carrick - 10,900 housing units (increase of 900),
Kerrier – 14,400 housing units (increase of 6,200),
North Cornwall – 13,400 housing units (increase of 5,800),
Penwith - 7,800 housing units (increase of 3,000),
Restormel - 15,700 housing units (increase of 7,100). There has been much concern in Cornwall regarding these proposals and
Dick Cole the leader of the Cornish political party
Mebyon Kernow has issued a statement saying that local housing strategy should be determined by democratically elected
Cornish politicians.
