To approve the Planning Obligations Supplementary Planning Document for adoption.
Fareham Borough Council has used legal agreements pursuant to Section 106 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 (known as planning obligations) for many years in order to secure contributions towards infrastructure such as open space and transport improvements.
Following the introduction of the Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) the use of planning obligations has reduced substantially. Even with CIL in place however, planning obligations are still needed to secure a number of elements considered necessary to make development acceptable in planning terms.
This SPD is guidance which supports Fareham’s Local Plan by setting out this Council’s approach to the use of planning obligations to secure satisfactory development and essential infrastructure.
The SPD was subject to six weeks of public consultation. The final version of this SPD takes the representations received into account and has also been updated to take account of the adoption of Parts 2 and 3 of the Fareham Local Plan.
