The South West Rugby Masterplan SPD provides additional detail to support the Local Plan allocation for the South West Rugby development.
At appendix K, the SPD includes a schedule of strategic infrastructure needed to support the development, including costs.
Appendix K will inform the Section 106 agreements with the developers of the South West Rugby site, which will provide contributions towards the delivery of the infrastructure.
The SPD states appendix K will be periodically reviewed and updated.
Since the SPD was adopted in June 2021 the costs of the strategic infrastructure have been affected by inflation and there is now a greater level of understanding of the scope of some of the infrastructure projects.
As a result, appendix K has been updated and the SPD has been amended to include the updated infrastructure costs.
In addition to updating appendix K, the council has made a minor clarificatory amendment to the comments on the provision of parks and gardens on page 35 of the SPD. This amendment is shown as a tracked change in the document.
