Freedom of information request about CIL
Received: 23 July 2025
I am making a request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000...- Has the local authority adopted the Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) and, if so, when did it adopt this tax? - How much money received via CIL payments is currently held, unspent, by the local planning authority? - How much of this sum has been allocated for infrastructure projects and how much is currently unallocated? - What is the current interest rate (%) that the local authority receives for holding unspent CIL money? - What was the monetary value of the interest accrued from unspent CIL monies for the financial year 2023/24?- Are CIL funds ring-fenced for community infrastructure projects? - Is the interest generated from unspent CIL monies directed towards the local authority's general fund?- What is the rate (£ per square metre) that the local authority charges for CIL-liable development? - How many planning applications for main residences were liable for CIL in 2023/24? - What percentage of property developments with 10 or more residential dwellings were liable for CIL in 2023/24?
