Parish councillors last night were strongly critical of government plans to offer developers scope to reduce what are called "section 106" agreements attached to new housing. These are aimed at helping a community cope with the increasing demands imposed by large scale building.
For instance the Home Farm approval includes money and resources for education, health and transport in addition to a community building. Some people might say we could lose the community building (I'd say no) but the contributions for health and education are vital.
So in the consultation going on at the moment about these proposals we are saying "Full 106". It isn't the bits and pieces of civic obligation that are holding up Persimmon but plain bad business practice and that is up to them to sort out.
On that, by the way, there is no news of "Persimmon-lite" a second planning application probably not involving the Goodman Land and Dension Land (which provides the access to Court Road.) Watch this space...patiently LOL
