LISTEN: With the new football season now in full swing, EG’s Jess Harrold is joined by Sue Chadwick, Arsenal fan and strategic planning adviser for Pinsent Masons LLP, to discuss some of the major planning issues involved in football stadium developments and redevelopments.
Chadwick considers how football cases have helped shape planning law in key areas, including in respect of assets of community value and environmental impact assessments, looks at how increasingly technologically advanced stadiums are at the forefront of data protection issues – which she predicts will come to play a major part in the planning process – and shares her pet peeve about Alan Shearer and other TV football analysts.
