To enable the District Council to deliver  facility improvements in the Rainworth locality to enhance the community infrastructure for the benefit of the local community.

Alternative options considered:

The Section 106 receipts held under this agreement have to spent on commnuity infrastructure projects in the Rainworth locality by 5th March 2024 in accordance with the S106 Agreement AG1087.

 

Therefore it is appropriate that the District Council uses the full receipt held to improve the current community assets in the Rainworth locality for  wider community benefit and  improved  community outcomes.  If the contribution held is not spent by the due date then it must be returned to the Developer with accrued interest under the terms of the S106 agreement.
