Planning obligations

What are planning obligations?

If you want to make larger developments, you will have extra responsibilities. We call these responsibilities your planning obligations. Planning obligations almost always apply to developers. The most common planning obligations are linked to:

  • public open space
  • affordable housing
  • education
  • highways
  • town centre improvements
  • health
