Community Infrastructure Levy

Summary of Consultation Process

1.0 Background

1.1 The Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) is a locally set standard charge that can be applied to new development to fund infrastructure. In order to charge CIL, charging authorities must prepare a Charging Schedule. City Council as the charging has prepared a Draft Charging Schedule, which sets out proposed CIL charges for diff erent types of development within the District.

1.2 Leicester City council has been preparing its CIL Charging Schedule since 2012. This document summarises the consultation and engagement undertaken.

2.0 Consultation and engagement with development industry representatives

2.1 In order to ensure that a CIL charge would not put at risk the delivery of the Core Strategy, the Council commissioned a CIL Viability Assessment.

2.2 The Council Commissioned with the rest of Leicester & Rutland local authorities, URS to undertake the viability assessment. During the preparation of the viability assessment, 2 stakeholder workshop days were held, which were attended by over 50 interested bodies in July and December 2012. Information regarding who was invited, and who attended these workshops can be found within appendix 1. The CIL Viability Assessment was published alongside the Preliminary Draft Charging Schedule in May 2014. This provided those in the development industry the opportunity to check and challenge, if necessary, the assumptions and fi ndings at a relatively early stage.

3.0 Preliminary Draft Charging Schedule Consultation

3.1 Leicester City Council published a Preliminary Draft Charging Schedule consultation document for a 6 week consultation between Wednesday 28th May 2014 and Thursday 10th July 2014. 6 CIL STATEMENT OF CONSULTATION
