![Page 8: Preston Implementing CIL Jan 2016 – Mike M](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070514/587de6ab1a28abaf6b8b68a9/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Implementing CIL
• Lead in time to bring CIL into effect– Ensure sufficient time to enable planning
applications that are in the system to be determined
– CIL will come as a surprise to developers, particularly for development where no S106 requirements
– Key issues to determine lead in time:• Range of uses included in CIL charging schedule• Prioritise applications
![Page 9: Preston Implementing CIL Jan 2016 – Mike M](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070514/587de6ab1a28abaf6b8b68a9/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Implementation Issues
• Know the regulations and keep up to date– Amendments every year since Regulations
first published in 2010• Familiarisation with the forms
– Planning Portal website & PPG • Don’t underestimate how much
developers/applicants will not know• CIL is time consuming
![Page 10: Preston Implementing CIL Jan 2016 – Mike M](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070514/587de6ab1a28abaf6b8b68a9/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Some common questions
• Does CIL apply to garages?• What about the roof space?• Does CIL apply to a renewal of planning
permission first granted before the charging schedule came into effect?
• Part of a site is sold to another developer after pp and before commencement– who is responsible for apportioning the CIL?
![Page 11: Preston Implementing CIL Jan 2016 – Mike M](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070514/587de6ab1a28abaf6b8b68a9/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Involving others
• Collecting CIL is a team activity– Planning –
• ensuring the relevant forms are received at the right time:
• Two developers in Preston who did not send a commencement notice before starting on site
• Timely response to claims for exemption/relief• Co-ordinating collection and spend• Reporting
![Page 12: Preston Implementing CIL Jan 2016 – Mike M](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070514/587de6ab1a28abaf6b8b68a9/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Involving others– Revenues – collection– Finance – accounting for CIL & distribution of
share to Local Councils– Legal – chasing up debts
