I'm just putting togrther some guidance notes, so sensibly I'm looking at others to avoide wheel re-invention. I've come across something that has confused me. I'm under the belief that disused buildings (6 out of 12 months rule) are effectively treated as new build, so existing floor space would not get subtracted before calculating CIL. Therefore bringing the building back into use and extending it ought to make it liable for CIL on whole building of 125 sqm? Any clarification gratefully received.
Thanks
| Current: Single dwelling – not in use but to be retained | Proposed: ?? 35 sq m new development ?? 90 sq m original retained | CIL: X | Justification Not liable as under 100 sq m new build and does not create a new dwelling (but extends an existing one). NB: Original building not included in calculation as not change of use or to be demolished so does not need permission. |
