Minutes:

 

Cabinet considered a report that provided an update on progress in preparing for the introduction of Haringey’s Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL).

 

It was noted that the CIL Regulations 2010 allowed local authorities and the Greater London Council (GLA) to introduce a CILs on new net floor areas comprising 100msq or more of new internal floor space to contribute towards any new infrastructure required as a result of the development. CIL would replace the s106 tariff, although the s106 tariff would continue to be applicable for over ten units of housing and anything which was site specific. 

 

The report set out the proposed preliminary charging schedules for consultation which had been compiled following research and a viability study. 

 

RESOLVED:

 

  1. That consultation should proceed between July and September 2012 on the Preliminary Charging Schedule for Haringey’s CIL based on the following rates for residential development:
