Respondent: LUTTERWORTH TOWN COUNCIL Parish Council

No. There is significant concern regarding the maintenance of assets and facilities following the completion of a development. It cannot be left to developers to ensure that adequate arrangements are in place, simply because they either move on and fail to maintain or sell the obligation out to a company whose details are not known to local councils, making it difficult to chase. If District Councils are not going to take responsibility for the effects of approved planning, then finance must be put in place through S106 to allow local councils to fund the maintenance.
