Community Infrastructure Levy reforms ‘could capture land value uplift’
0The government has proposed reforms to the current Community Infrastructure Levy regime to help councils capture the uplift in value from land following the grant of planning permission. A consultation released this week asked for views on a proposal to allow authorities to set differential CIL rates based on the existing use of land. It said: “A charging authority may, for example, choose to set out different rates for residential development depending on whether the land was in agricultural or industrial use before receiving planning permission.”
