Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL)

Representation ID: 1731

Received: 30/01/2015

Respondent: Cogent Land LLP (Cogent)

Representation Summary:

Whilst CLL welcomes a number of the items included on the Regulation 123 list, and the general approach taken by the Council in linking the Regulation 123 list directly with the IDP; we would highlight that a number of infrastructure projects included on the list are also likely to be delivered through Section 106. There is subsequently a high potential for 'double dipping'. We are therefore concerned that a significant amount of infrastructure will continue to be sought through "site mitigation" Section 106 obligations for items of infrastructure that could otherwise have been funded by CIL and that an insufficient allowance has been tested in the supporting Viability Study.
