1 The Charging Areas The Charging Areas are set out in the Community Infrastructure Levy Charging Area Map in Annex 1 of this schedule
Statutory Compliance This Charging Schedule has been published in accordance with the Community Infrastructure Levy Regulations 2010 (as amended in the Community Infrastructure Levy Regulations (2011, 2012, 2013, 2014) and Part 11 of the Planning Act 2008 and in any future amendments.
Payment terms CIL payments are due within 60 days from the date a chargeable development is commenced and in accordance to the council’s instalment policy.
Payment for CIL can be made by land as well as by money. It is for the charging authority to choose whether to accept payment (in whole or in part) by land.
The chargeable rate will be index linked, which is the national All-in Tender Price Index published from time to time by the Building Cost Information Service of the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors.
The calculation of the chargeable amount to be paid by a developer is set out in Regulation 40 of the CIL Regulations 2010 (as amended).
A proportion of CIL revenue collected by the council (up to 5 per cent of total receipts) can be used to cover the costs of administering the levy (including initial set-up costs).
Calculating the Chargeable amount
The CIL will apply to ‘chargeable development’. This is defined as:
all new buildings, but excluding buildings into which people do not usually or only occasionally go (e.g. only to inspect machinery or structures such as electricity pylons or substations). development delivering 100 m² or more of additional gross internal floorspace the creation of one additional dwelling even if the gross internal floorspace is less than 100 m² some developments not requiring planning permission (permitted development) will also be liable for CIL if they do not fall into the exemption criteria.
2 Exemptions
The CIL Regulations exempt the following from paying the CIL:
Development by registered charities for the delivery of their charitable purposes Charitable development that meets the relief criteria set out in Regulations 44 to 48 Those parts of a development which are to be used as social (affordable) housing Development of less than 100 sq m of new build floorspace, provided that it does not result in the creation of a new dwelling Vacant buildings brought back into the same use The conversion of any building previously used as a dwelling house to two or more dwellings Development of buildings and structures into which people do not normally go (e.g., pylons, wind turbines, electricity sub stations) Houses, flats, extensions which are built by ‘self-builders’ Specified types of development which the council has decided should be subject to a ‘zero’ rate based on viability evidence, and specified as such in the charging schedule Where the overall chargeable amount of a scheme is less than £50
Discretionary Relief and Exceptional Circumstances Relief
The CIL Regulations allow for the Council to provide further relief, at their discretion. The Council do not have to offer this relief, but if they choose to do so, they must adopt a discretionary relief policy. This is not part of the charging schedule and may be published at a different time.
It was resolved at Council meeting on 18 February 2016 not to offer discretionary relief for exceptional circumstances.
Neighbourhood funds
The Regulations require the council to pass on a proportion of the revenues from CIL receipts to the parishes within which the chargeable development took place. Parishes with a Neighbourhood Plan will receive 25 per cent of the revenue from the CIL development that they choose to accept – and parishes without a plan will receive 15 per cent of the levy revenue, subject to a cap of £100 per existing council tax dwelling per year.
This money must be spent on infrastructure. To ensure transparency both the council and any community in receipt of CIL must report annually on how this money has been spent.
