There is a local area plan where I live, it has been there for ten years and nothing has happened with it. The developer on that site is finding it hard to start building because it has to pay out all that money and it questions whether it is worth it. It is bizarre that the local authority would create that plan and then take the attitude that its job is done at that point. You would think there should be some collaboration between all the stakeholders on the likes of building the road through it and getting the lots done, at which point the State would go in and provide it.
