Community Infrastructure Levy (2)

  • Reference: 2012/2165
  • Question by: Nicky Gavron
  • Meeting date: 04 July 2012
The Community Infrastructure Levy has to ensure it does not impact on the viability of development. Since the Mayoral CIL was published, the government has changed the definition of viability. This means that the boroughs, who are now publishing their own CILs, will be developing them to a different definition of 'viability' to what the GLA did. What impact, if any, do you anticipate this change in definition having?
