Developer Contributions SPD

Representation ID: 71745

Received: 12/02/2020

Respondent: Ms Maxine Kennedy

Representation Summary:

Education – It is important to ensure that where a new school is required that the school costs are divided proportionately across the developments that contribute/ trigger the requirement.

Where a developer is required to provide an area of land greater than that necessary to meet its own school places requirement this should be receive a compensatory payment for the additional land on an agreed basis.
The SPD should make it clear as to what basis this value is measured.

Phased payments for educational contributions should be utilised so as not to threaten development viability.
