Planning Agreements

We are finding that the use of planning agreements – for example agreements under section 75 of the Town and Country Planning (Scotland) Act 1997 – are becoming more common and more complicated.  A section 75 agreement is used to restrict or regulate the development or use of land and becomes part of the title to the land.  Such an agreement is used when a straightforward planning condition would be inappropriate or unsatisfactory.

We have extensive experience of drafting and negotiating complex planning agreements.
