Mr M. Hunt – Garendon Development

1. Could the Leader confirm that the Estate Plan required under permit P/14/1833/2 has been completed and approved by the authority?

If so, where can it be accessed and, if not, when is it likely to be finally presented to the Head of Planning for approval?

2. Does the Estate Plan include a fully costed financial and resources plan?

3. Has a Management Company been identified?

4. What are the anticipated annual charges to the Management Company, and will the full charge be levied before community facilities, including the listed Park, have been provided?

5. Has the Authority negotiated any relaxation on the S106 Agreement or conditioning of the Estate Plan?

6. Will the charge be a flat rate across the development site or somehow related to the size of residential property concerned?

7. Has the area of public access to Garendon Park been finally determined?

8. Have the points of access, including footpaths and bridleways and cycle ways, between Loughborough and the Development site been confirmed and if so where are these access points?

9. Some names of streets have appeared on online media, could the leader provide a full list of street and footpath names to be allocated by the authority at this time?

10. Is the authority requiring or expecting the developer to propose a contribution to public art on the site and if so how is this to be arranged?
