Co-ordinated investment plans to deliver the right infrastructure
Our “Place Plans” enable us to collaboratively identify and prioritise the investment and infrastructure priorities needed to support new development.
they also help us to prepare clear and transparent delivery plans for how and when these will be addressed.
The Plans are the platform for our work with partners, coordinating resources to deliver the right infrastructure at the right time.
Supportive and engaged local communities
We are committed to an annual conversation with our local communities and key stakeholders through our ‘Place Plan’ approach. This eases the path for future developments, establishing strong local relationships to shape and secure growth.
Financial benefits
We do not place our Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) on business premises. Instead we work with you to reach agreement on the infrastructure requirements necessary for your development and operate a clear, transparent and viable system of planning obligations. We provide a template S106 agreement to you to maximise efficiency and enable you to commence your development as soon as possible.
