Neighbourhood Community Infrastructure Levy (NCIL) Review - outcomes and recommendations for Cabinet approval

17/02/2023 - Neighbourhood Community Infrastructure Levy (NCIL) Review - outcomes and recommendations for Cabinet approval

RESOLVED:  That

 

(1)            the report and options set out in Appendix 1 to the officer report be noted;

 

(2)            the recommended options set out in Section 5 of the officer report be approved; and

 

(3)            the Chief Planning Officer, following consultation with the Leader of the Council and the Portfolio Holder for Planning and Regeneration, be authorised to implement the recommendations and develop and agree any additional detailed processes and procedures required to do so.

 

Reason for Decision:  The current Neighbourhood Community Infrastructure Levy (NCIL) process was adopted in 2017 and no review has been undertaken during the intervening five years. The new ward boundaries from May 2022 necessitated as a minimum that the NCIL balanced against the previous ward boundaries were re-allocated to the new ward boundaries. The report and appendices to the officer report provided an overview of options considered and recommendations to Cabinet to implement and adopt the new process.
