Small Extensions
Advocate Publications: 121 Date d'inscription: 25/04/12 Publications RécentesWe are shortly going to introduce a CIL and are putting web guidance in place.
One issue is whether we require extensions of below 100 sq m to submit additional CIL information with applications. To my mind the only reason for so doing would be to provide clarity in borderline cases where a liability may be triggered in the event of an under-declaration. From the applicants perspective (unless it is a borderline case) the consequence of not submitting floorspace, liability and commencement information is a CIL liability of £0.
What do others do?

RE: Small Extensions
Advocate Publications: 103 Date d'inscription: 05/09/13 Publications RécentesWe do the exact opposite here at TDBC. We introduced CIL on 1 April 2014 and I, as the CIL Officer, assess each application received and decide whether or not to request the CIL forms. If I assess an extension as anywhere near 90 square metres I will ask for the forms to be submitted for clarity. Hope this helps.
Seems. Got the resources? then it's "horses for courses". No dedicated CIL Officer here, that might make a difference to the amount of time you cane devote to assessing App details with the 100sqm test. Another thing that might make a difference & I should have mentioned in my 1st response, completion of the Government's CIL Additional Information Requirement form, is a local BFC validation requirement, so less room for flexible pragmatism & by-passing what the form says, otherwise App. not registered @ BFC.

Use Classes not identified in the Charging Schedule - in our case that would be everything apart from residential and retail;
Minor development - fences and enclosures, access to a classified road, satellite dishes and solar panels;
Development which does not create built floorspace - renewable energy, highway works and car parks, sports pitches, quarries, etc - which would nonetheless have to submit a zero figure and assume liability;
Irrespective of what the form says, isn't this a waste of everyone's time? and what are the consequences of not doing it?
We request the CIL Additional Info form, as a local validation requirement, for all applications that meet the trigger for CIL under Reg42 - ie over 100sqm of new build or a new dwelling. In cases that are borderline - eg 97sqm of new build - we request the same information. This provides a consistent approach to administering CIL for all non-minor developments.
