The Town and Country Planning Brownfield Land Register Regulations (2017) is a statutory requirement for Local Planning Authorities to prepare and publish a Brownfield Land Register and update it on at least an annual basis.
The purpose of the register is to support Local Planning Authorities with their delivery of housing more quickly and efficiently on utilised brownfield land. The register will also be used to monitor the government's commitment to the delivery of brownfield sites.
The council has prepared a Part 1 Brownfield Land Register and has also created an interactive map that identifies all sites entered on Part 1 of the Elmbridge Brownfield Land Register. A separate guidance note (information for users disclaimer) has been produced to justify the council's methodology.
