Fears raised over Jennett's Park developers failing to keep promises

Fears developers are failing to keep promises to provide community services when building neighbourhoods have been raised by councillors.

Great Hollands North councillors Mary Temperton and Michael Gbadebo claim Jennetts Park developers are not carrying out their obligations.

During a meeting between Bracknell Forest Council and the Jennetts Park Consortium, which built the development in Peacock Farm, on Wednesday, September 3, it was concluded none of the outstanding developer contribution requirements had been met.

Cllr Gbadebo said: The council outlined its disappointment with the speed at which everything is happening.

There have been a number of broken promises from the developers as well as a failure to develop certain things on time. We, as a council, need to do more we need to see some action.

When planning applications are approved by the council, developers are given a list of agreed contributions which they must provide.

These obligations range from providing community centres and schools to roads and recycling areas to ensure the council does not have to pay out for infrastructure to support new developments.
