Respondent: Taylor Wimpey

Representation Summary:

7.11 Policy HOU5 relates to education facilities and indicates that where land is provided for a new school as part of a housing development, the financial contribution made by that development towards education facilities will be reduced accordingly. Taylor Wimpey supports this approach but would suggest that it is also recognised that delivery of education facilities such as new schools is outside of the remit of developers and relies on the Local Education Authority or free schools.
7.12 Taylor Wimpey also supports the recognition that funding will only be sought that will not undermine the viability of a development.
