Community Infrastructure Levy

The Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) came into force in April 2010 through Community Infrastructure Levy Regulations 2010 and amended the Planning Act 2008 to enable local authorities in England & Wales to help deliver infrastructure support to the community.

As you might expect there are many circumstances that limit the payments of CIL with some developers being eligible for relief or exemption from it. However, broadly speaking it is due to new developments that create net additional floor space of 100 square meters or create new dwellings.

There are limits on spending this money which can be found in the guidelines
