Planning Obligations (S106)

Supplementary Planning Document

The Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) on Planning Obligations (known as section 106 agreements) sets out in principle what kinds of planning applications will require infrastructure investment such as transport, education and open space. These will help to ensure that developers mitigate the impact of the development and meet the infrastructure needs it creates.

The SPD forms part of the ‘Local Development Framework’ (LDF) and is designed to act as a framework to guide sustainable investment and development within the Royal Borough. It supplements policies within the Unitary Development Plan (in particular MI1) and the Core Strategy Policy C1 “Infrastructure Delivery and Planning Obligations”

The consultation ran from January to March 2010. The SPD was adopted on 17 August 2010, and will be implemented from September 2010.  Copies can be downloaded below.
