Community Infrastructure Levy

1. Preliminary Draft Charging Schedule (July 2015)

The Council consulted on the first stage of introducing a charge on new development - a Community Infrastructure Levy - to support the delivery of essential infrastructure across the District.

The consultation focussed on the proposed charge rates in the Preliminary Draft Charging Schedule. A Background Report was prepared by way of further explanation. The following supporting evidence base documents were also made available for comment:

  • Bradford CIL - Economic Viability Evidence
  • Local Infrastructure Plan Evidence

Public Consultation - Preliminary Draft Charging Schedule (July to September 2015)

The public consultation on the Preliminary Draft Charging Schedule has now closed.

What happens next?

Once the Council has considered all the representations received, it will produce a Draft Charging Schedule, which will be subject to a further round of consultation before being submitted for Examination. The Council anticipates adopting the CIL charging rates during 2016.
