Criticised our sequential test and retail impact
I asked our planning consultants to look into retail impact
I examined some of the sites and discounted them one by one. In one example I looked at the udp where it was allocated for green space
Example of when you negotiated?
Bolton le sands
- 2 acre site in Lancashire
- negotiated 2 year option with no fee
- whilst marketing the site for house builders council changed policy on AFH contribs
- had to go back to landowner, had empathy as I was having to adjust price without giving him anything in return
- in the end agreed overage clause
