IM1 Infrastructure

The Royal Borough will ensure, through the use of conditions and planning obligations attached to planning permissions, that all qualifying development provides for the infrastructure, facilities, amenities and other planning benefits that are necessary to support and serve it and to offset any consequential planning loss to the local area in a way that secures the best use of land and a properly planned, well designed, accessible and integrated environment. The Royal Borough will seek appropriate planning obligations in accordance with its Planning Obligations SPD.

Developments incorporating a significant amount of infrastructure, public realm and open space should reach a Civil Engineering Environmental Quality Assessment rating of ‘Excellent.’
