We have to prepare an infrastructure funding statement each year, which provides a summary of developer contributions (also known as 'planning obligation') and show how these are being used to support new development and local infrastructure in Harlow.
You can read our latest statement: Infrastructure funding statement 2023 to 2024 (pdf)
The statement must include:
- developer contributions received in the reporting year
- developer contributions secured in the reporting year
- developer contributions spent in the reporting year
- developer contributions held at the beginning of the reporting year and at the end of the reporting year
- projects or infrastructure schemes which developer contributions have been received, secured or spent, including costs
It must also include information on non-financial schemes that have been agreed through a planning obligation, such as affordable housing units or school places, as well as contributions through the Community Infrastructure Levy.
If you need to see a past version of the statement, you can request this by emailing Myharlow@harlow.gov.uk
