Working with developers

We are keen to work with developers and have developed two schemes to help achieve this:

1. Planning Support Service (pilot scheme) – this service provides additional support throughout the planning process, for sites of 10 housing units or more. We recognise sites of this size often face greater challenges throughout the planning process and have therefore established this service to help streamline projects and minimise delays for developers during the planning process. Please email: chris.morgan@derby.gov.uk for further information. This is a pilot scheme which currently is being offered free of charge however we may decide to charge for this service at a later date.

2. Assistance with applications for Homes England funding and finance with a focus on the Home Building Fund and Community Housing Fund. Please email: chris.morgan@derby.gov.uk to enquire about this service. Please note, charges will be applied for applications which are successful in receiving funding from Homes England.
