Planning Community Needs
In partnership with the Ethical Property Foundation and the Rayne Foundation, the TCPA has recently published a guide on how to deliver higher levels of community infrastructure through participation in spatial planning. Entitled, ‘Planning Community Needs – a guide to effective Section 106 agreements & Statements of Community Involvement,’ it aims to help planning practitioners and developers deliver better quality development that meets the needs of the voluntary and community sector.
