Overview
To deliver sustainable development we need to make sure new housing is supported by adequate infrastructure and that some of those new homes are affordable. To achieve this, we have polices to ensure new development contributes by providing land, buildings or finances to deliver new infrastructure and affordable housing.
The Elmbridge development contributions supplementary planning document and Community Infrastructure charging schedule set out the contributions required from new development towards infrastructure, affordable housing and Thames Basin Heaths mitigation through the use of both planning obligations and the Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL).
For more information on CIL see Community Infrastructure Levy for developers.
See Thames Basin Heaths for the latest Strategic Access Monitoring and Management (SAMM) charge, which is updated from 1 April each year.
