3.         That if any of the heads of terms set out above have not been agreed and the S106 legal agreement has not been finalised by the 11 November 2013, or any other period deemed appropriate by the Head of Planning, Green Spaces and culture, then delegated authority be granted to the Head of Planning, Green Spaces and Culture to refuse the application for the following reason:

 

                        ‘The applicant has failed to provide contributions towards the improvement of services and facilities as a consequence of demands created by the proposed development (in respect of education, health, community facilities and libraries, construction and employment training facilities, monitoring and highway junction works).
