Monitoring Planning Obligations
Once planning obligations associated with planning permissions have been agreed, it is important that they are implemented or enforced in an efficient and transparent way, in order to ensure that contributions are spent on their intended purpose and that the associated development contributes to the sustainability of the area. This will require monitoring by Local Planning Authorities, which in turn may involve joint working by different parts of the Authority.
There are two aspects to monitoring and managing legal agreements these being:
- Financial monitoring and management of the monies associated with receiving the income; and
- Physical monitoring
As from 1st August 2021 the charge for the monitoring of planning obligation will be:
- For minor development (PS Code 13 to 24) £350 per agreement relating to financial monitoring and £400 per agreement relating to physical monitoring.
- For major development (PS Code 1 to 12) £500 per obligation.
