Abstract: | Much has been written on public participation in local planning but very little on the involvement of landowners. This is despite the clear financial motives which encourage many landowners to participate in the local planning process. The paper demonstrates how in one case in West Yorkshire, an important historic landowner was able to exert a substantial influence on the pattern of land use allocations in an adopted local plan. Although the particular characteristics of the case study may not be found elsewhere, it helps to identify how more substantial research in this often neglected area might proceed. |
