Download Planning Obligations Funding guidance notes (pdf 41kb)The Green Card scheme

The Green Card scheme was introduced in December 2007, providing a clearly defined route via which local residents, community groups and other organisations can apply for new or improved leisure-related facilities in parks or other open spaces across the Borough.

Green Card projects are funded by Planning Obligations Funding; we have produced a downloadable guide (right, pdf 41kb) describing how funds are allocated and what they can be spent on. 

A Green Card application form is available to download from www.boroughofpoole.com.

Green Card project applications are checked by Leisure Services to ensure they meet the relevant criteria.  Those that do are then submitted for approval/prioritisation by the Planning Obligations Sub-Group who meet every 3 months.

Planning Obligations Sub-Group Members:

Councillor Gregory (Chairman)

Councillor Gillard (Vice-Chairman)

Councillors Adams, Allen & Wilson

Note:  The Government will soon replace the current system with the 'Community Infrastructure Levy'.  Borough of Poole's Planning Obligations Development Plan Document will consider whether obligations need to be broadened to take account of changing needs in terms of health, education and other priorities, and how future contributions should be sought.

Further (technical) background information to Section 106 Planning Obligations can be found at boroughofpoole.com
