Council still failing to get developer contributions.
Legal obligations on developers to provide community infrastructure are not being enforced by Wiltshire Council. Trowbridge councillor Jeff Osborn has been trying to get the council to take the problem seriously, and has been promised a complete list of the outstanding money owed to Trowbridge by November. In the south of the county there are no electronic records so planning officers are having to plough through paper records. "There is still the problem of liaison between Development Control, Legal, Finance and all the departments/sections that spend Section 106 money - housing, transport, education, open space etc," said Jeff.
