Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL)

What is CIL?

CIL is a general levy on all new development, designed to raise funds for infrastructure needed generally as a result of an increase in development in the area. The developer pays CIL to the District Council and a percentage is given to the Parish Council. CIL can then be used to provide or improve infrastructure and to then operate or maintain that infrastructure within a community.

What is Infrastructure?

Infrastructure may be a physical thing such as a building, a playground or a zebra crossing that becomes more necessary as a result of the development. It also could be the provision of a service that might not exist at the moment, such as transport for the elderly or a community cafe. For more information on Cil Funding Click Here
