EMP10 Childcare Facilities

The Council will seek to ensure that any large-scale employment generating development provides childcare facilities for its employees, either within the development, or in the form of the support for the provision of childcare provision elsewhere. The Council will require developers to enter into Section 106 Planning Obligations to secure this aim, where necessary.

Within the designated Employment Areas, the Council will permit development or change of use to provide childcare facilities, only where it can be shown that these facilities would support the local workforce.
