Policy DM5: Design and character

Part I of the policy requiring the provision of public art is contrary to the advice in the NPPG and we recommend this should be deleted.

The NPPG advises that planning obligations should not be sought for things that are clearly not necessary to make a development acceptable in planning terms. It specifically refers to public art as falling within this category. We recommend that part I is deleted.
