Charnwood Borough Council last week resolved to grant full planning consent to Bloor Homes’ development of 125 dwellings at Queniborough Lodge. The complexity from a transport point of view was grappling with Leicestershire County Council’s transport contributions strategy. As the site is in the North of Leicester area, it results in a request for £35,778.93 per dwelling. The contributions strategy is impacting on a number of our clients’ sites, and so a number of us listened to the planning committee meeting to hear the planning officer’s recommendations, and how the councillors responded to that request.
