Community Infrastructure Levy - Preliminary Draft Charging Schedule 'First Review'
Introduction
The 'Preliminary Draft Charging Schedule' is the name given to the first stage in the setting of new CIL rates. The document has been produced as part of the Council's review of its current CIL Charging Schedule, which came into effect on 1 May 2013, and sets out:
- What CIL is now
- How CIL rates are set
- How CIL will be collected
- The sorts of infrastructure that the levy funds are likely to be spent on
The new proposed CIL rates are set at a level that are high enough to fund as much infrastructure as possible, but not so high as to make possible developments 'unviable' to developers.
Setting rates at a level that is 'viable' for developers will help ensure that the development set out in the Fareham Local Plan can be delivered as planned. It will also help support long term economic growth in Fareham.
