U1 Infrastructure adequacy

Before granting planning permission for development on large sites the Council will have regard to the adequacy of the existing infrastructure. If the existing infrastructure provision is inadequate the Council will either:

  • seek to phase or postpone the development until adequate infrastructure provision is likely to be available; or
  • refuse planning permission where appropriate phasing or postponement cannot be agreed.
