Section 76 Agreement - Tailoring and Model Templates

Section 76 Agreements must be tailored to reflect the specific delivery methods and circumstances of each development. The Council provides template model agreements for common approaches to assist the process.

As a number of possible methods exist for the delivery of the affordable housing, clauses within the s76 Agreement will need to be tailored to reflect the proposed delivery methods, products used and circumstances in each case. To assist this process, the Council is developing a series of template model s76 Agreements for the most common approaches. These model planning agreements can then be tailored to the specific circumstances of each development, with the most important consideration from a Council perspective being a workable solution between all parties that results in affordable housing being delivered to meet identified need/demand.
