Local plan revision reveals conflicts

does give local people a chance to have their say, even if their hopes are often engulfed by legalities, Gov­ ernment policy or just financial impossibility. A revision to the plan is


now being drawn up by the council and the first draft drew a steady flow of com­ ments - so much so that the deadline for them was extended for a full month. ‘ Now a second draft is


being prepared, with the Ribble Valley Borough Council Planning Depart­ ment having to juggle com­ plex and contradictory issues. Unsurprisingly, develop­


ers or owners of land they have targeted often suggest


sites for housing which would conflict with govern­ ment policy. But Chief Planning Officer Mr Stew­ art Bailey points out: "The plan preparation process, however, provides us with a straightforward means of assessing these conflicts and producing a balanced set of planning policies which will be subject to full public consultations.” But at a more grass roots


level, groups such as Clitheroe Civic Society and the NFU are keen to push their case in just the same way as owners of land wanted it designated for housing. The civic society is also asking about possible

It is not appropriate to introduce arbitrary limita­ tions on the size of agricul­ tural dwellings, they sug­ gest, requesting "positive policies for reuse of rural buildings for business pur­ poses". A planning lobby group suggests that the local plan "is increasingly being used as a means of prot- ection/anti-development rather than a framework for guiding new development”. The revised plan will be available later in the year.

WHAT IS A BUY TO LET MORTGAGE


YOU MAY ASK?


Back in 1996 there was a shortage of rental property. A group of lenders, backed by the Association of Residential Letting Agents,


began to offer mortgages to people who wanted to buy properties and let them out. Since then, the market has grown enormously. As working patterns change and people become more mobile, there is greater demand for. rented property and short-term'lets. :
