Received: 24/03/2020

Respondent: Letchworth Garden City Heritage Foundation

Agent: Planning Matters

Representation Summary:

3.3.1 - the Section 106 requirements associated with town centre development should be lesser than those in out of town locations, in order to support town centres.

3.3.3 - Any contributions should directly, fairly and reasonably relate to the scale of the development proposed.

3.3.4 - The completion of works on land outside the applicant’s control may not be feasible. Therefore, unless an agreement is in place with the relevant third party, such a requirement would be unreasonable.

3.3.5 - The text should refer to Paragraphs 1.3.2 and 1.3.3 for clarity.

3.3.6 - Where such contributions are required these should be applied in a transparent and consistent manner, ideally based on reporting of previous contributions.
