00:04 So we're at North West Gate now which sits across the road from the station quarter
00:08 and as you can imagine it's risen up in our priority list for a development that we need to get away.
00:14 It's a 4.6 hectare site, looking at around 450 homes and a hotel development here as well.
00:20 It's been with a land trader for 27 years now,
00:24 three peaks in the development cycle and two successful planning applications
00:29 but unfortunately nothing's happened.
00:31 So we're looking at ways of assembling this site ourselves,
00:33 maybe looking at using the council's own powers of intervention
00:37 to ensure this development comes forward in the next 24 months.
