RESOLVED:   That the funding for applications for CIL Infrastructure Funding attached as an appendix to the report be approved.

Reason for Decision

To ensure that the CIL monies collected are being spent on appropriate infrastructure projects to reflect the growth of population occurring in West Norfolk.

Councillor Moriarty presented a report where he explained that as part of the process to allocate CIL funding to Infrastructure Projects, CIL applications were invited in January and July annually. The most recent round of applications included a number of bids over £50k. The CIL Spending Panel had delegated powers to approve and sign off applications up to £50k. All applications of £50,001 and over fell to Cabinet to make the decision under the CIL Governance framework. The current round of applications had 9 projects over £50k.

Councillor Moriarty explained that a review of the governance arrangements for the CIL process was about to be undertaken for future years.  He thanked those involved in the consideration of the applications for the current year.

Under standing order 34 Councillor Kemp spoke on the application for the footpath at West Lynn which was an active travel initiative.  She thanked officers at the Borough and County Councils who had assisted with the application.
