Supporting paragraph of Policy DM2 seeks mid stage reviews for large scale developments. Large scale developments are considered to be multi-phased developments that are delivered ‘across different stages in an economic cycle’ where mid stage reviews may be appropriate where they are built over a number of years (eg. 10+ yeas) and subject to subsequent permissions. However, the definition provided for large scale developments is not reflective of smaller schemes, for perhaps 100-200 units which are typically single phase schemes. The introduction of mid stage reviews onto these smaller (non strategic) schemes can affect their deliverability and we would caution against their introduction and this should be considered as a Modification to the plan.
