Planning
Obligations – Draft Head(s) of Terms
Planning obligations (or “section 106
agreements”15) are private agreements negotiated between local planning
authorities and persons with an interest in a piece of land (or “developers”),
and are intended to make acceptable development which would otherwise be
unacceptable in planning terms.
Where Development Plan Documents contain
policies that give details of likely planning obligation requirements, a local
planning authority may require a statement of the proposed Heads of Terms to be
submitted with the application.
Further advice on planning obligations is
available in Circular 05/2005 - Planning Obligations.
A model section 106 agreement is available on
the Communities and Local Government website at
