Service Lead: Chloe Salisbury
Chloe is an experienced town planner who specialises in the preparation of plans, strategies and masterplans, and developing implementation strategies for development projects. Her work typically involves undertaking complex stakeholder engagement, critically analysing data and policy to inform decision-making and facilitating and influencing the views of multiple parties.
Chloe has worked for both public and private sector clients, including a recent secondment to Epping Forest District Council to support them in the preparation of their Local Plan. Her work has also focussed on how aspirations for places can be realised, including assessing the suitability of different governance and delivery models (e.g. development corporations, the role of local authorities) and in devising planning strategies to unlock and deliver developments. This includes providing planning related inputs for business cases.
Whilst based in London, much of Chloe’s work is based outside of the capital including, for example, in the Thames Estuary, Bucks/Berkshire, Essex, the East Midlands and Liverpool. She therefore brings a good understanding of the complexity of different places and the importance of developing tailored and place-focused strategies.
