Agenda item 4.3
MID DEVON DISTRICT COUNCIL COMMUNITY INFRASTRUCTURE LEVY EXAMINATION
On 31 March 2017, following public consultation on a Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) Draft Charging Schedule between 3 January and 14 February 2017, Mid Devon District Council submitted the Draft and associated documentation to the Planning Inspectorate for examination.
The Inspector currently conducting the Mid Devon Local Plan Review examination has indicated that he expects to be able to provide his report on the Local Plan to the Council this month, and will subsequently examine the CIL. The timetable for the CIL examination will depend on the Council's adoption of the Local Plan following the Inspector's report, but hearings for the CIL examination, if required, are expected to be held later this year subject to Government advice on public gatherings.
I understand from Mid Devon District Council that, on behalf of Newton St Cyres PC, you submitted a representation to the previous Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) consultation between 9 February and 27 April 2015. A copy is shown below
Although the Inspector will be examining the 2017 Draft, Mid Devon District Council have asked the Inspector to also consider representations made to the 2015 Draft consultation.
Can you please confirm whether the Parish Council still wish to progress the 2015 representation and if you will still be the main contact for further information in due course?
