About the Community Infrastructure Levy

The Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) is a charge on new development payable to the council.

It is used to address demands of growth, including funding infrastructure such as new schools and transport improvements, needed to support new development in the borough. For more information, visit the government’s guidance on the operation of CIL.

The council’s Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) examination took place on 21 November 2014. Following receipt of the Examiner’s report, the council, at its meeting on 25 February 2015, decided to start CIL charging on 6 April 2015.

Note on the CIL ‘Regulation 123’ list

The requirement for the council to maintain a CIL Regulation 123 list has been removed following the enactment of the new CIL Regulations 2019 on 1 September 2019.

Therefore, the CIL Regulation 123 list is now to be used as an informative document on how infrastructure may and will be delivered and funded in Bracknell Forest through CIL income and section 106 planning obligations.

The council's CIL Regulations 123 list was replaced by the councils new Infrastructure Funding Statement.

Section 106 Planning Obligations

Section 106 Planning Obligations, although scaled back, continue to operate alongside CIL in the funding and delivery of infrastructure to support growth.
