Community Infrastructure Levy - Draft Charging Schedule (Nov 2014)
Appendix 2
Regulation 123 Infrastructure List (Draft)
Community Infrastructure Levy
Draft Regulation 123 Infrastructure List
Local Development Framework 2001-2021
Southend Borough Council, as CIL Charging Authority, is expected to publish a list of infrastructure that it intends could be funded, wholly or partly by the Community Infrastructure Levy. The Regulation 123 Infrastructure List sets out the projects that may be funded through CIL and includes infrastructure required for the delivery of the Council's adopted Development Plan Documents. However, the inclusion of a project or type of infrastructure on this list does not signify a commitment from the Borough Council to fund (either in whole or in part) the listed project or type of infrastructure through CIL; nor does the order of infrastructure items within the list imply or signify any order of preference or priority for CIL funding.
This list can be amended at any time but will be reviewed annually and any changes that the Council proposes to make to this list will be subject to public consultation in accordance with the regulations and government guidance.
If infrastructure is required to make a development acceptable in planning terms (see the Planning Obligations Supplementary Planning Document for further details in relation to site specific infrastructure contributions) or arises directly from five or fewer developments, Section 106 (Planning Act) or Section 278 (Highways Act) arrangements may continue to apply in addition to CIL.
Planning obligations and highway agreements will still be required in accordance with Regulation 122 and 123 (Community Infrastructure Levy Regulations 2010 (as amended)) for obligations relating to infrastructure not listed below.
