Viability

In 2017, Avison Young (previously trading as GVA) were appointed to:

  • consider the viability of policies set out within the Local Plan Initial Draft (July 2017);
  • and advise on what CIL rates would be viable to include in the Draft Charging Schedule (DCS).

This assessment also considered the viability of the draft housing and employment allocations within the Calderdale Local Plan Initial Draft (July 2017).

This report was published in January 2018 and was used to inform:

  • the policies included within the Calderdale Local Plan Publication Draft 2018;
  • and the CIL rates set out within the Draft Charging Schedule (August 2018).

However, the Calderdale Local Plan Publication Draft 2018 included additional draft housing, employment and mixed-use allocations that were not included within the Local Plan Initial Draft (2017). The Council, therefore, subsequently instructed Avison Young to consider the viability of these additional draft allocations. This report was published in March 2019.

As the Council prepared for the Local Plan Examination, Avison Young were instructed to undertake a new viability assessment of the ‘preferred Local Plan allocations for housing as at 21st August 2020.
