Section 106 Planning Obligations

We help developers, landowners, banks and other interested parties to get planning permission where local authorities require the applicant to enter into a planning obligation either by agreement or undertaking.
We have drafted and agreed numerous planning obligations for development proposals large and small. We provide commercial advice and are proactive where required.
We are particularly experienced in complicated, multi-party agreements for large scale developments. We understand the relationship between planning obligations and Community Infrastructure Levy.
