Guidance for parish and town councils

A proportion of any Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) money is given to the town or parish council where the development took place.

To help you, we've published a guide that includes:

Town and parish council CIL payments

We must pass a percentage of any CIL money raised to the town or parish council where the development is taking place.

The percentage is set at 15% (capped at £100 plus indexation per number of dwellings in the parish per annum) or at 25% (uncapped) in areas with a made Neighbourhood Plan.

Any town or parish councils that have received CIL must publish an annual CIL report that includes:

the total amount of CIL receipts for the financial year
the total CIL expenditure for the financial year
a breakdown of CIL expenditure for the financial year
