According to pins for the DCO to accepted rsp have to prove that they have the money for all of the compensation and that this proof will be published on the pins website. I would say that rsp not publishing a defined level of compensation as part of their documentation would suggest that there may be issues that are yet to be resolved. Most financiers would I think be concerned about an open-ended aspect like that, inasmuch as I can see how the Heathrow package would work, how spreading it over a year would mean that the amount of finance needed would be limited and how just the existence of the package would be likely to preserve property values.

At the risk of being frank, just because you do not know is not proof of anything. <br /><br />Michael, As usual you are scratching around looking for evidence against RSP; and also garnering hits on your blog.

I would say there is never a cut and dried right solution with these issues, but if local proposals have aspects where there is a lack of professional understanding then historically we have sometimes got into the worst case Thanet situation which is large and important sites wasted like Pleasurama. <br /><br />I think a key here is that the DCO can’t proceed without rsp proving they have the money to fund compensation and somehow they don’t seem to have even got to the point of saying what the compensation would cover. <br /><br />I would say that Heathrow, the other big airport expansion project moving towards a DCO is worth a look at.<br /><br />I guess that as there has never been an airport expansion DCO there is an area where everyone involved lacks experience. <br />Michael Childhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09499435016469020417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3575321478441277410.post-61625245374862269182017-07-15T16:50:12.623+01:002017-07-15T16:50:12.623+01:00Michael,

Are you endeavouring to show us that in your view RSP is doomed.

Essentially that rsp like Heathrow have the money to cover the most compensation they could need to find. <br /><br />Something like airport site 700 acres, 283 hectares, designated brownfield independent valuation https://www.kent.gov.uk/.../0008/53882/Land-prices.pdf puts southeast non agricultural land prices, residential in the av £4m per hectare ballpark with the lowest in Dover at about £1.75m and industrial in the £1.1m ballpark. <br /><br />I think the whole point of a DCO is that at the point of application all of the main issues should have already been sorted out, the pins phrase is front loaded, after this the only official consultation the general idea is that the whole DCO project then goes ahead pretty much as thrashed out during the pre application stage. <br />Michael Childhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09499435016469020417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3575321478441277410.post-8307421863659757552017-07-15T08:28:25.276+01:002017-07-15T08:28:25.276+01:00The CAA designate the flight paths and they aren&#...The CAA designate the flight paths and they aren't going to do that until the DOC has been settled.
