Abstract
While land value capture (LVC), developer obligations (DOs) specifically, and their potential to finance public investments has received much attention in recent years, affordable housing is often not included in its scope. Although not universally applied, affordable housing is being regarded as a public good in a plurality of contexts. Interestingly, while the Netherlands comprises of one of these contexts, and has been known historically for its large affordable housing sector, it has experienced a significant affordable housing shortages recently. By researching this context, this research has set out to provide further understanding in the potential developer obligations have for the development of affordable housing. As the Netherlands is known for a large use of negotiations in the implementation of LVC, this research does not only make a policy implementation assessment, but also regards the role of negotiations, and the related negotiation skills. It does so by researching three Dutch municipalities: Amsterdam, Utrecht and Nijmegen, in a mainly qualitative manner. In addition, it provides an analysis of the new Dutch spatial planning law, the ‘Environment and Planning Act’, and its potential for the accumulation of LVC.
