Monitoring planning obligations


We carefully monitor all Legal Agreements in a transparent manner. We ensure that:

  • contributions are spent on their intended purpose and
  • the associated development contributes to the sustainability of the area. 

Where we have closely monitored schemes, we have secured the community contributions expected from the development. Additionally the transaction stages become easier when it's confirmed that the obligations have been complied with.

This page sets out what the fees are for monitoring obligations.

All fees are inclusive of VAT unless stated otherwise.
