Examination news - updates regarding the examination process
January 16 2021: The examiner appointed to examine the Bromley CIL charging schedule has reviewed the documentation submitted by the council and the representations made. None of the representations include a request to be heard at a public hearing. The examiner has decided that the examination will proceed on the basis of the written submissions and representations. The examiner anticipates being in a position to submit his report to the council before the middle of February 2021.
February 17 2021: The examiner issued the report on the draft Bromley Community Infrastructure Levy charging schedule (PDF - 198.46 KB). The examiner concludes that the draft Bromley CIL Charging Schedule provides an appropriate basis for the collection of the levy in the area. One modification is necessary to meet the drafting requirements set out in CIL legislation.
The CIL regulations require the report to be displayed at the council’s principal office at the Civic Centre. However, the COVID-19 pandemic affects our ability to do this. We can arrange for documents to be made available for inspection by appointment. Please contact the CIL team to arrange this.
