The Planning White Paper: Delivering Quality Urban Design for Cities, Towns, Streets and Spaces
Join us for the last in the series of four lunchtime seminars exploring the proposals in the White Paper and how they can be translated into a practical system that will deliver the quality of built environment that people need to thrive.
The focus of this final event will be to look at the proposals as a whole, the objectives and ultimate purpose of the planning system, the measures needed to ensure and maintain quality, the resources required, and the commercial and political realities.
