Received: 11/07/2014

Respondent: Savills

Agent: Savills

Representation Summary:

information already required as part of a planning application. These references should therefore be removed.

The level of information required at the early stage is too high and unreasonable given the very limited certainty to a developer prior to any granting of planning permission. This should be reviewed to ensure that requested information is proportionate and necessary and not simply ideal.

Example scenario

Respondent: Savills

Agent: Savills

Representation Summary:

Example Scenarios
These scenarios do not test normal costs of development, and make no allowance for land purchase price and then already losing a proportion of that land to infrastructure, open space, bin storage, revised space standards etc. and therefore are not accurate in approach. CIL and other planning policy considerations are not included within the approach.
