Minutes:

The Head of Planning Services had submitted a report to seek approval for the Draft CIL Charging Schedule and revised CIL 123 list to be submitted to the Secretary of State for examination, approve the statement of modification and approve the policy for Exceptional Circumstances.

 

The Cabinet Member for Planning & Sustainable Transport, Councillor Alex Hollingsworth introduced the report which followed on from the earlier consultation which had revealed concerns about the viability of imposing a levy on B2 and B8 designated developments; it was therefore proposed that those developments  should not be subject to a levy.

 

The recommendation in relation to the Exceptional Circumstances Relief Policy now needed to be revised (to take account of the agreement to the Scrutiny Committee recommendation described above) by the removal of recommendation 3 as shown in the report.

 

 Cabinet resolved to:

 

1.    Approve the Statement of Modification (Appendix 5) the Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) Draft Charging Schedule (Appendix 4) and the revised CIL Regulation 123 list (Appendix 7) and Authorise the Head of Planning (or any officer acting in that capacity), to make any typographical changes to the document deemed necessary and then to formally submit to the Secretary of State for examination; and

2.    Approve the discretionary Exceptional Circumstances Relief Policy (as per Regulation 56 of the Community Infrastructure Levy Regulations 2010 (as amended) (Appendix 6).
