If I may revive an old, but still relevant debate - What are people's thoughts on the soundness/legality of defining CIL charging zones by a brownfield/greenfield differential?
Is anyone aware of any examples of this?
I would be grateful for any thoughts or advice.
Hi Roger,
We have successfully created a £zero charging zone for our greenbelt release, both residential and employment use. We have excluded this as a charging zone on our maps, and our viability consultants completed a separate paper on the viability issues specifically for this planned development. We received the Examiner's report and intend to start charging in January (www.birmingham.gov.uk/cil).
However, I'm not sure this is relevant to you - are you looking for a general differentiation between brownfield and greenfield? If so, you would need the viability evidence to support this. With a specific, planned greenbelt release, you can begin to estimate the infrastructure requirements and costs such as highways, schools and open space at a high level, but if you're looking at a greenfield charge to recover funds from piecemeal developments, this may be more difficult? I think you would run the risk of analysing viability on a site by site basis, which is not what the regs recommend (unless they are a strategic site)?
