Brownfield land register

Leeds  City Council was selected as a pilot authority  for the Government's brownfield land register project to help lead the way in bringing forward previously developed land for new homes.

The Council worked with the Department for Communities and Local Government to help inform guidance on the operation of the brownfield registers. The registers will help house builders identify suitable sites quickly, speeding up the construction of new homes. The government has pledged to get planning permission in place on 90% of suitable brownfield sites for housing. To help achieve this goal, the government is to enable ‘permission in principle’ to be granted for housing-led development sites listed on new brownfield registers as part of the recent Housing and Planning Act 2016.

The Council will have the final say on which sites are on the register and which sites will have permission in principle. When deciding on which sites to include in the register, the Council will consider the housing growth ambitions of the Core Strategy and Site Allocations Plan. 

 As part of pilot project, the Council put together a register of suitable sites with a total capacity of over 30,000 new homes sourced from the Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment (SHLAA). The new formal requirement is for the register  to be kept in two parts.  The Council has produced a formal Part 1 register and the accompanying map of sites is published before the annual 31 December deadline, this will be reviewed at least once a year. The map of sites is hosted  [**here**](https://leedscc.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=612532561dc547fa93e683a5fca73079) **.**

Part 2 allows the Council to select sites from Part 1 and grant Permission in Principle (PIP) for housing-led development, after undertaking necessary requirements for publicity, notification and consultation. Entry onto Part 1 of the register does not guarantee that this site will progress onto Part 2 of the register or receive planning permission. Preparatory work on Part 2 commenced in 2018 and will continue in early 2019.

The Council is welcoming comments from the public on the sites included in the register and asking landowners to put forward sites for consideration in the future register. The sites must be previously developed and able to accommodate 5 or more dwellings or be at least 0.25 hectares in size.

If you would like to submit a site to the next register that you think could be developed for housing, please send details of the location and availability of the site including an outline plan to  [[e-mail]](mailto:[e-mail]) .

利兹市政府被选为政府棕地土地登记项目的试点机构，旨在引领推动先前开发土地用于新住宅的建设。市政府与社区及地方政府部合作，以协助制定棕地登记的指导方针。该登记将有助于房屋建设者快速识别适宜的场地，从而加快新住宅的建设速度。政府已承诺，对于90%适宜的棕地土地，将确保获得规划许可。为实现此目标，政府根据2016年《住房和规划法案》，允许对列入新棕地登记的住房引导型开发场地授予‘原则性许可’。市政府将对登记在册的场地以及哪些场地将获得原则性许可拥有最终决定权。在决定纳入登记的场地时，市政府将考虑核心战略和场地分配计划中的住房增长目标。作为试点项目的一部分，市政府编制了一份适宜场地登记册，总容量超过30,000套新住宅，这些住宅来源于战略住房土地可用性评估（SHLAA）。新的正式要求是，登记册需分为两部分。市政府已编制了正式的第一部分登记册，并在此前的年度12月31日截止日期前发布了场地地图，该地图将至少每年审查一次。场地地图托管于[此处](https://leedscc.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=612532561dc547fa93e683a5fca73079)。第二部分允许市政府从第一部分中选择场地，并在完成必要的公示、通知和咨询要求后，授予住房引导型开发的‘原则性许可’。登记册第一部分的录入并不保证该场地将进入第二部分或获得规划许可。第二部分的准备工作于2018年开始，并将于2019年初继续进行。市政府欢迎公众对登记册中的场地提出意见，并邀请土地所有者提出未来登记册考虑的场地。这些场地必须是先前开发的，能够容纳5套或以上的住宅，或者至少0.25公顷以上。如果您希望提交一个您认为可以用于住宅开发的场地至下一期登记册，请将场地位置和可用性详情以及概述计划发送至[[e-mail]](mailto:[e-mail]) 。
