In the second of our three part series, we're in discussion with Bloor Homes Planning Director, Mark Waite. In the 5 minute video we discuss 'Why you should care about viability assessments". We cover topics such as land value, stalled sites and what we think is needed to keep sites coming forward.
March 2018 marked the Government’s launch of the revised National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) and the Draft Planning Practice Guidance (PPG) consultation. This follows on from the Housing White Paper and Planning for The Right Homes in the Right Place Consultation; both of which provided initial proposals to amend the existing policy following a consecutive 6 years of no changes in the NPFF.
The documents were published alongside statements by Theresa May and Sajid Javed focussing on the need for housing delivery. With housing firmly at the forefront of the government’s agenda, we explore the key policy changes that will affect residential development. Access to the published documents is available here.
