Much anticipated decision here on nutrient neutrality re whether it was right that conditions (in this case on a reserved matters approval) could be discharged without an appropriate assessment of the development phase. Or in more layman’s terms, if the c…https://t.co/KXGj0PE2zJ

A very enjoyable afternoon attending the President’s lunch at the Devon County Show with @sallybasker to represent Exeter Science Park Limited - the theme of this year’s show being #innovation. A bit of planning chat (well, from me at least) thrown in to…https://t.co/2Jgz1KVsuU

Rather late posting this, but Exeter City Council has submitted its new Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) charging schedule for review. See the below link. As is often the case, the revised schedule was subject to relatively few…https://t.co/Qzes3LZx3n https://t.co/NFyduBqTTq

Good article here by Rebecca Ellis introducing biodiversity net gain (BNG) . Yes it's been in the air for a while, but the need to provide it is yet to make its way into force, legally speaking. Listening to the Landmark Chambers podcast on AONBs and natu…https://t.co/X6nZQzwDPL

Appeal decision here re the application of habitats regs to discharge of condition decisions, which for those that had the misfortune to hear my slot in the WYG planning update a couple of years ago (I think!) may not be a surprise. The regs requirements…https://t.co/32C5wq7fga
