Hello,
Lambeth Council consulted on a Preliminary Draft Charging Schedule (PDCS) in October 2018. Since then, the Community Infrastructure Levy (Amendment) (England) (No. 2) Regulations 2019 (the ‘2019 Regulations’) amended the CIL Regulations and took effect on September 2019. A Preliminary Draft Charging Schedule is no longer required as the first step in the process of adopting a revised CIL Charging Schedule. However, Regulation 13 (transitional and saving provisions) of the 2019 Regulations provides that if the Council had already held the first round public consultation, comments received in response to this consultation on the PDCS must be considered.
The Council has considered the representations made during the consultation on the Preliminary Draft Charging Schedule in 2018. The Infrastructure Delivery Plan was reviewed and updated to meet the needs of the borough between the financial years 2019/20 and 2034/35. The Viability Study was also reviewed and updated in support of both the proposed amendments to the Lambeth CIL Charging Schedule and the Draft Revised Lambeth Local Plan Proposed Submission Version (DRLLP PSV). The Viability Review dated December 2019 recommends no changes to proposed revisions to Lambeth's CIL rates. Following approval by the Cabinet, the Council will now proceed to the next stage of reviewing its CIL rates by publishing a Draft Charging Schedule in accordance with the CIL Regulations 2010 (as amended).
The second round public consultation on the Draft Charging Schedule will run for six weeks from 31 January to 13 March 2020. Please visit Lambeth's Draft Charging Schedule 2020 consultation page.
This will run alongside the publication of the Draft Revised Lambeth Local Plan Proposed Submission Version (DRLLP PSV) prior to submission for independent examination. You will receive a separate email on this inviting representations on the DRLLP PSV.
The Council is inviting representations on the Draft Charging Schedule in accordance with the Statement of the Representations Procedure. Representations on the Draft Charging Schedule can be made by direct email to: cil@lambeth.gov.uk with “DCS 2020” as the email subject header.
Or in writing to:
Lambeth CIL team
PO Box 734
Winchester
SO23 5DG
Representations must be received by 11pm on Friday 13 March 2020.
The Draft Charging Schedule and the evidence base in support of it will be available to view or download from the Lambeth website. The evidence base for the Draft Charging Schedule will include:
Copies of the above documents will be available for public inspection at the Lambeth Town Hall, the Civic Centre and all public libraries during normal opening hours. The documents can also be made available by contacting the Lambeth CIL team on cil@lambeth.gov.uk.
Information about the previous consultation on the Preliminary Draft Charging Schedule 2018, including the consultation report that was produced after it, will remain available on the Lambeth website.
At the end of the consultation period, the representations received will be taken into account before the Draft Charging Schedule is submitted for examination. The Council intends to adopt a revised CIL Charging Schedule in 2020.
If you have any questions on CIL or about this email, and/or you no longer wish to receive communications of this nature, please email cil@lambeth.gov.uk.
