Saltley, Birmingham – A first for SPZs

Abstract

Summarizes the SPZ scheme for Saltley in Birmingham. Examines the reasons for setting up the scheme and other factors helping to regenerate the area, such as a new road link and environmental improvements. Surmises that the scheme focuses resources and action on the area, helping to secure grants, speed up land sales and planning permission, and give more freedom to developers by permitting a wide range of uses, while taking account of the interests of local residents.
