Paul G Tucker QC has successfully promoted an appeal on behalf of St Modwen, in partnership with Rob Barnes of Planning Prospects for a huge new employment development adjacent to junction 10 of the M42. The Inspector concluded that North Warwickshire had not properly addressed what was characterised by the local Chamber of Commerce as an “acute” need for additional employment land to accommodate large scale regional needs. The case highlights the need for local authorities to address business needs which transcend simply local needs when preparing their local plans – and has already been relied upon by developers at local plan examinations elsewhere in the region.
