Broadly support BUT, with specific reference to allotments, any consideration of “off-site commuted sums” should consider LOCAL (there is little value in an allotment beyond easy reach of residents) land availability and the value of the land which might need to be acquired by the alternative allotment providers (eg Parish Councils). The availability of areas of such local land is shrinking rapidly. The danger of this policy and similar policies is that it enables the developer to abrogate responsibility for providing necessary facilities onto bodies with less purchasing and negotiating power.
