Draft Planning Obligations SPD

Representation ID: 28556

Received: 14/07/2014

Respondent: Carter Jonas

Agent: Carter Jonas

Representation Summary:

The Council must ensure that each case is considered on merit and that competing interests, for example the desirability of achieving high density yet good quality development on urban or suburban sites, is not prejudiced due to a need to fully meet informal open space standards on site. In a great many cases, where there is good access to off-site open space, full provision on site would have dramatically reduced housing yield. This paragraph is somewhat confusing when read against the advice in paragraph 5.7.1 (see separate representation).
