Haringey consults on CIL draft charging schedule


Residential community infrastructure levy (CIL) rates in the London Borough of Haringey will range from £15 per square metre to £265 per sq m under proposals set out by the Council in its draft charging schedule (DCS) (9-page / 2MB PDF). 

The Council launched a consultation on the DCS last week, with proposals to divide the Borough into three separate charging zones for residential and student accommodation developments.

For developments in the East zone, including White Hart Lane, Seven Sisters and Tottenham Hale, the proposed rate is £15 per sq m. The Central zone, covering Bounds Green, Woodside, Noel Park and Haringey, is subject to a proposed rate of £165 per sq m. The West zone includes Highgate, Muswell Hill, Hornsey and Crouch End and has been set a proposed rate of £265 per sq m.

The Council has proposed that supermarket developments across the Borough should be liable to pay a CIL rate of £95 per sq m whilst the proposed rate for retail warehousing is set at £25 per sq m.

A zero rate levy is proposed for all office, industrial, warehousing, small scale retail, health, school and higher education developments. All other uses are subject to a proposed rate of £50 per sq m.

The rates remain unchanged from the rates proposed by the Council in its preliminary draft charging schedule (PDCS) with the exception of the 'all other uses' rate which was then set to a nil rate. The Council consulted on the PDCS in July last year.

In addition to CIL charged by the Council, any developments in the Borough will also be subject to Mayoral CIL. The Mayoral CIL charge in Haringey is £35 per sq m on all uses except for health and education purposes, which are exempt.

The consultation will be open until 24 May.
