Morning Wendy,

 

Please find attached an excel spreadsheet with a list of the S106
contributions received in the last financial year.  As you can see, the
Council has not yet spent any of this money as yet, although the money is
allocated by order of the legal agreements.

 

Kind Regards

Nicola Hamilton

Planning Enforcement Team Leader
