HAVE YOUR SAY: CIL Infrastructure Charging 27 Sep 2024 17:00 - 17:00 at Eynsham Village

The District Council is in the process of introducing the Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) and is consulting on a new draft charging schedule from 2 August to 27 September.

CIL is essentially a tariff that can be placed on most forms of new development to help fund local infrastructure such as transport, flood defences, schools, green space and community and cultural facilities.

The documents are also available in Eynsham Library; and comments can also be sent by email to planning.consultation@westoxon.gov.uk

Where all or part of a chargeable development is within the area of a parish council, the District Council is required to pass a proportion of CIL receipts to the parish council, to address the demands that development places on the area.

Strategic local plan sites (such as Salt Cross, West Eynsham) are proposed to be CIL exempt, because the significant infrastructure costs associated with bringing them forward will be secured through other mechanisms including Section 106 agreements.
