S106 agreements

GIS representation of the Council’s register of Section 106 (S106) agreements. The locations refer to the development from which the money was raised, not where the money is spent. These agreements are arrangements whereby developers of larger sites pay money to the council to reduce the impact of the development. Developers sign a S106 agreement as part of their planning permission. This is a legal document that specifies what the money is spent on and where. For example, S106 money is used to make improvements to highways, parks, public transport, schools.
