This draft plan has also been made possible by the dedication of the Neighbourhood Forum Steering Group who have devoted many hours of volunteer time in making it happen.

In 2010 I was elected as local councillor for the Crofton Park ward. I’ve seen it change in many ways through the years but the essence of the place remains. It is a vibrant, family-friendly local community with residents and businesses that care about their streets, facilities and green spaces. People are drawn to the area because of the variety of homes, the attractive Victorian and Edwardian streets, the parades of independent shops and eating places, the good transport connections, the local creative and cultural activities and the beautiful parks. We know the area will continue to change and many of the challenges that other areas of London face have not escaped us – congested roads, increasing housing costs and stretched local services.

  • CIL Viability Appraisal
    CIL Viability Appraisal By Lambert Smith Hampton: For London Borough of Lewisham Assessing Viability Community Infrastructure Levy: Economic Viability Study on behalf of London Borough of Lewisham Prepared by Lambert Smith Hampton UK House, 180 Oxford Street London W1D 1NN Tel: 020 7198 2000 Fax: 020 7198 2001 Date: January 2012 Contents Page 1 Introduction 4 2 CIL in Context 5 3 Lewisham in Context 9 4 Our Methodology 14 5 Modelling viability 19 6 Data Collection and Review 28 7 Modelling Outputs 36 8 Conclusions and Recommendations 48 Appendices Appendix I List of Regulations Appendix II Summary of other Authorities draft charging schedules Appendix III Case Studies of LB Redbridge, LB Wandsworth & The Mayor of London’s CIL Appendix IV Ward Characteristic Analysis 3 1. Introduction Background 1.1 The London Borough of Lewisham (LBL) instructed Lambert Smith Hampton in May 2011 to undertake an Economic Viability Study (EVS) to provide evidence to support their Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) Charging Schedule. 1.2 The Planning Act 2008 introduced the CIL as a mechanism that could be used to fund infrastructure requirements from developer contributions. This led to the publication of the CIL Regulations in March 2010 and the introduction of CIL from 6 April 2010. The Regulations set out the requirements for CIL, including the production of a Charging Schedule, which is to be supported by background evidence on economic viability and infrastructure planning. This report provides economic viability evidence to support the CIL rate that the LBL will charge. The purpose of the EVS is to advise LBL upon “the potential effects (taken as a whole) of the imposition of CIL on the economic viability of development across its area” (CIL Regs 2010, R.14.1.b) and provide LBL with a recommended CIL charging rate(s).
