Issue details

Westminster City Council adopted a CIL on 20 January 2016 to take effect on 1 May 2016. The Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) Regulations 2010 (as amended) are prescriptive about how CIL must be calculated and applied to development. But they do also provide some limited measures to allow flexibility. This includes the ability for CIL charging authorities to allow payment of CIL by instalments and to make further reliefs from payment of CIL available alongside the mandatory reliefs that must be made available under the CIL Regulations. Approval will be sought to provide this additional flexibility by publication and implementation of CIL policies and statements related to: Payment of CIL by Instalments; Making discretionary reliefs available; and CIL Infrastructure Payments Policy.
