Proposed CIL charges for Havering

The Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) is a charge which Havering Council can place on developers to help pay for infrastructure needed to support new development in the area.

It is based on a formula relating to the type and size of development and is collected when planning permissions for new developments are implemented.

It can be used to fund a wide range of supporting infrastructure including roads and transport schemes, flood defences, schools and education facilities, sporting and recreational facilities and open space. 

It will give developers, and their agents, a clearer understanding of the financial contributions they are expected to make towards the delivery of community infrastructure needs and it will give the Council a simple process for the collection of these contributions.

Consultation on the proposed CIL for Havering runs from Monday 23 February until Friday 10 April 2015.

More information on the Havering CIL proposals is available here.
