Town and parish CIL

Some of the monies received through CIL can be passed to local councils as a Local, or Neighbourhood, Fund. The regulations state that a minimum of 15% of the funds raised within a parish should be passed as the local portion.

This will rise to 25% where a neighbourhood plan is in place.

This local portion makes sure that infrastructure improvements can be made directly in the areas where the development takes place. Projects may include new equipment for a local play area, new benches in a local park or improvements to villages and community buildings.
