Bell Cornwell LLP Planning Consultants’ Post

This month, KOR is bringing you a bonus episode of Estate Matters! 🎙️ And it’s not because it’s nearly Christmas, but because the updated National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) was released by the Labour Government, and we were keen to discuss the opportunities it offers landowners and developers. Our host, Anna Byles was joined by Iestyn John a Partner at Bell Cornwell LLP Planning Consultants and Andrew Howard, AdCert PRCA, KOR’s Senior Public Affairs Specialist. In the new episode, our guests explain how the revised planning policies provide the opportunity to create more homes, more quickly, but without compromising on the provision of essential infrastructure or abandoning high quality design. On the topic of communications and engagement, they agree that it is still as important as ever despite the changes in NPPF. Landowners have hard-earned reputations to protect and uphold, so the importance of communicating the vision of quality properties that communities need and that reflect well on the estate remains essential. Estate Matters is available on all major podcast streaming services, tune in to the full episode here: https://lnkd.in/ek2b3Nyr #EstateMatters #Podcast #NPPF #Engagement #Communications #LegacyDevelopment

How do we consider concepts of equity and diversity in land use and zoning? In this Infill Development in Edmonton Association (IDEA) podcast (with Mariah Samji and Ryan Eidick), I spoke about the work I led for the City of Edmonton to ground their Zoning Bylaw Renewal Initiative with a robust equity and engagement lens. In developing the tool, I prioritized the inclusion of people and voices traditionally left out of the conversation, personal introspection of our individual/collective responsibility as policy makers to shape inclusive spaces, and acknowledgment of our own role in perpetuating policies that harm marginalized communities. This work became the City Manager’s top 13 transformational projects in 2022, and led to more inclusive land use regulations, a SSHRC funded study on how to substantively embed equity into land use through a legal lens, creative communication tools (e.g. comic books, podcasts, videos, playbooks) to support accessibility into civic governance, deepened relationships with people with a range of backgrounds and identity factors, and a toolkit for public sector servants to advance this important work.

This is a really good 11 minute episode on crisis communication. It comes at the subject from the point of view of the needs of governmental entities. But the advice is pertinent to any crisis situation involving your client or organization. And Scott Houston is one of the best podcaster you’ll ever hear.
