RESOLVED:
(1) That the Developer Contributions SPD approved by Cabinet in July 2020 continue to be used as a material consideration in the negotiation and determination of relevant schemes;
(2) That, pending the updated Green Space Strategy and revised programme of Supplementary Planning Documents, Fields in Trust standards be used to assess open space provision in new development;
(3) That officers, in consultation with the Executive Member for Planning, determine whether any areas of the Developer Contributions SPD require additional work prior to adoption and present any revised draft or final version(s) to Cabinet for their approval.
REASONS FOR DECISIONS:
(1) To allow the continued use of the detailed guidance in the Developer Contributions SPD in the negotiation of relevant schemes;
(2) To ensure the provision of appropriate levels of open space in new development;
(3) To enable officers, in consultation with the Executive Member and Deputy, to consider whether any matters arising since the July 2020 resolutions of Cabinet necessitate substantive additional work before the Developer Contributions SPD is formally adopted.
