Delivery & Monitoring
Introduction
478.
In setting the Vision and Strategy for sustainable development in the Borough over the next
fifteen years, the Local Plan is both aspirational and realistic. It is important to demonstrate
that it is deliverable and to show how the challenges have been addressed. Going forward,
policies need to be monitored to assess how successful they are over time, and evaluate
how they may be improved in the future.
479.
Delivery may be enabled through a number of ways, including (but not limited to):
Developer Contribution Policy
Infrastructure Delivery Plan
Planning Process
Partnership working, including the West Midlands Combined Authority
Urban Growth Company
480.
In recognising that it cannot deliver the Local Plan strategy alone, the Council will work with
public, private and voluntary sector organisations to draw together the necessary resources.
Policy P21 Developer Contributions and Infrastructure Provision

150
Major Development will be expected to provide, or contribute towards provision of:
i.
Measures to directly mitigate its impact and make it acceptable in planning
terms
ii.
Physical, social, green and digital infrastructure to support the needs
associated with the development
2.
Infrastructure and mitigation measures will be provided in a timely manner to support
the objectives of the Local Plan.
3.
The Council will, where appropriate, seek to secure site-specific measures through
planning obligations. The nature and scale of any planning obligations sought will be
related to the form of development and its potential impact on the site and
surrounding area. The cumulative impact of developments will also be taken into
account.
4.
The Plan has been subject to a Viability Assessment to ensure the policies are
deliverable. In the exceptional circumstances where site specific issues generate
viability concerns, applicants should discuss these with the Council at the earliest
possible stage in the development process. Proposals that are unable to comply with
the Plan’s policies on viability grounds must be accompanied by a detailed Viability
Assessment.
5.
Developer contributions in the form of the Community Infrastructure Levy will
contribute towards strategic infrastructure required to support the overall
development in the Local Plan An element of CIL will, where appropriate, also be
utilised to deliver local infrastructure requirements in accordance with Neighbourhood
Plans in accordance with CIL legislation.
