RECOMMENDED: 1) That the Council undertakes a formal consultation on a Draft Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) Charging Schedule.
2) That Council Proceeds to formal Examination of the Draft Charging Schedule.
3) That for the purposes of the consultation the draft CIL rates will be those outlined in section 2.4.3 of the Report.
4) That Council authorises the Executive Director for Planning and Environment in consultation with the Leader of the Council to prepare the specific consultation documentation as required, based on the Draft Charging Schedule and the information in Appendices 1, 2, 3 and the consultant HDH’s Viability Assessment (January 2016).
Reason for Decision
Publishing a Draft Charging Schedule allows the Borough Council to collect the formal views of the community and development professionals operating in the Borough, and allows consideration of bringing in a CIL and setting particular rates to be examined.
