The rural dilemma of supply and demand
Wood, M
The rural dilemma of supply and demand - 2001 - Planning (for the Natural and Built Environment) (1424) 22 June 2001, 18(1) .
Considers the role of the planning system in the change of use of vital rural facilities like shops and post offices. Briefly discusses recent planning appeal decisions that demonstrate the range of factors planning inspectors have to consider, such as whether the loss of local facilities would undermine the social and economic vitality of a rural centre. Highlights the three main considerations in determining the acceptability of the loss of local facilities and concludes that the planning system should facilitate the loss and reuse of local shops providing there is enough evidence to support this stance.
