Ferdinand Posted May 6, 2019 Posted May 6, 2019 May be of interest. (Assuming half to two-thirds is from residential development, this is 20k or so per new build house).

ProDave Posted May 7, 2019 Posted May 7, 2019 So who is going to do the FOI request to see exactly where £20K per house has actually been spend?
patp Posted May 26, 2019 Posted May 26, 2019 Living in a village which has been targeted by developers in the last few years I would love to know where all the money has gone! None of it has come to the village to provide footpaths, community facilities etc
Jeremy Harris Posted May 26, 2019 Posted May 26, 2019 As a Parish Councillor I've dug into this a bit. Our village has had 16 new builds that have attracted CIL, at an average rate of around £20k per house. The Parish has been given £3.5k from CIL. Says it all, really.

Affordable housing, obviously! Mind you, Im not sure where they’re being built, not in the National Park, that’s for sure!
Temp Posted May 26, 2019 Posted May 26, 2019 And there was me thinking council's had to justify the CIL by making a list of infrastructure projects that need funding. Would be good to see what actually got funded.
patp Posted May 28, 2019 Posted May 28, 2019 Most of the sites developed in our village have been of no benefit to the village whatsoever. One site of 95 houses was supposed to provide, among other benefits, an open green space. They negotiated it down to a piece of land off the corner of the site to go towards a highways improvement.
newhome Posted May 28, 2019 Posted May 28, 2019 “Charging authorities must allocate a ‘meaningful proportion’ of levy revenues raised in each neighbourhood back to that neighbourhood. This will ensure that where a neighbourhood experiences a new development, it receives sufficient money to help it manage the resulting impacts on the locality.” Maybe a FOI request to ask what the meaningful proportion should be? 1% (a la @JSHarris‘ example) doesn’t sound very ‘meaningful’!
