To consider the above report.

Minutes:

The Planning Act 2008 provided broad powers to enable local authorities to introduce a planning charge on development, referred to as the “Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL)”, with the intention of helping to fund the infrastructure necessary to bring about proposals for development identified in Local Development Frameworks. The detailed legislative framework to bring this into effect came into force on 6th April 2010.

 

The Board considered the Briefing Report of the Planning Policy Manager which provided a summary of the key features of CIL, how it was to be implemented and the proposed relationship between CIL and planning obligations.

 

RESOLVED:

 

That the Briefing Report be noted.
