Alliance Sponsors West Midlands RTPI Planning Achievement Awards

Alliance Planning sponsored the West Midlands RTPI Planning Achievement Awards for the third year running and was delighted to be involved in recognising the high calibre of projects in the region. The main award was presented to Staffordshire Moorlands District Council for the Biddulph Area Action Plan. This has been a trail blazing policy and implementation tool and was the first to be adopted since the introduction of the Local Development Framework (LDF) breed of development plans.
The event was held at The Holiday Inn at Stratford on Avon on Friday 27 June 2008 and was well attended including the RTPI President Janet O’Neill, planning professionals, academics and the West Midlands Planning Aid service. Paul Harris, the West Midlands RTPI Branch Secretary, was also rewarded for his contribution over the last 20 years with a long standing service award.
Paul Ellingham, Alliance Planning Associate Director, was present at the awards ceremony (pictured with Janet O’Neill, RTPI President) to present the award to Staffordshire Moorlands District Council. “This further reinforces the company's support for RTPI events in the region and provides an opportunity for like minded professionals to meet on a regular basis,” comments Paul. “All of this has been made possible by Mark Walton from Alliance through his ongoing involvement with the RTPI at a national and regional level.”
For further information on the event please contact Mark Walton or Paul Ellingham at the Birmingham Office of Alliance on 0121 410 2703.
