Community Infrastructure Levy
The Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) was adopted by Vale of White Horse District Council on 27 September 2017 and took effect on 1 November 2017. The levy applies to all new residential development and extensions which exceed the threshold of floor area (currently 100m²).
15% of CIL monies for developments and extensions within the parish of Abingdon-on-Thames are passed to the town council.
The town council is required to spend these funds within five years from the time they are received and must produce an annual declaration of CIL monies received and CIL monies spent by 31 December each year.
Annual CIL declarations can be viewed below. The town council’s agreed policy on the use of CIL funds can be viewed here.
