Places for People
Places for People (PfP) is the company who has the responsibility for delivering the new housing and commercial development. This is governed by a Development Agreement between PfP and the landowners, the City Council and Advantage West Midlands. The current economic conditions mean that bringing forward development here at the moment is not financially viable. All parties are working hard to bring forward a first phase of development as soon as possible.
