Mezzanine Floors
Advocate Posts: 103 Join Date: 05/09/13 Recent PostsHi,
I'm sure this subject has been raised before but I couldn't find it!!
If a retail outlet is increasing the size of it's mezzanine floor area by 475m2 and no other work is taking place i.e. it does not form part of a wider planning permission seeking to provide other works as well, are they charged CIL on 475 m2 or do they get the first 200m2 free??
Thanks
Rebecca
Surely the full 475? If you applied the same argument within other areas of CIL, it’d be like saying a 110sqm extension is only charged for the 10sqm above the 100sqm threshold.
Rebecca,
I agree with Helen - we have a size threshold for supermarket developments and if an application breaches that size, the full floorspace is liable.

Thanks for taking the time to reply.

Talking of mezzanines: http://www.planningresource.co.uk/article/1386186/judge-rules-170000-cil-demand-unlawful
According to this ruling, the creation of mezzanines that do not include any external changes to the building are not liable for CIL.
