Cautionary Notes
FYI:
details of the launch are below... Neighbourhood forums look to have a growing
influence over local planning issues as they are eligible to recoup
sizable portions of the Community Infrastructure Levy from Local
Authorities. The C.I.L. is widely regarded as a way of phasing out the
old Section 106 agreements, so developers can now contribute to the
local area by handing over a large sum of cash and so avoiding the
requirements to include social/affordable housing in the new builds.

Obviously
this may have a pretty big effect on people in the catchment area, so
please forward to any residents or interested parties and encourage them
to come along!
