Community Infrastructure Levy Draft Charging Schedule Consultation 2024

Overview

Cherwell District Council has prepared a Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) Draft Charging Schedule for the Cherwell District and would like your views.

CIL is a charge which can be levied by local authorities on new development. It can be used to help deliver infrastructure needed to support development. It is not mandatory, and is only charged in areas where a draft CIL charging schedule has been consulted on and agreed following an examination in public.

We are presenting a draft of the proposed CIL charging schedule for consultation so that you can consider our proposed rates for different forms of development. We have also published and seek your views on the evidence that supports the draft CIL charging schedule.
