The Council has proposed in the revised DCS (4-page / 703 KB PDF) to divide the district into two charging zones for residential developments. In the 'Low Zone', which covers an area either side of the A1308 and B1113 between Stowmarket and Needham Market, residential developments of between one and 10 homes would be charged a rate of £125 per sq m and those with 11 or more homes would be charged £75 per sq m.
In the 'High Zone', which covers the rest of the district, a rate of £165 per sq m has been proposed for residential developments of between one and 10 homes. Those with 11 or more homes would attract a charge of £115 per sq m under the revised DCS.
A district-wide rate of £100 per sq m has been proposed for "wholly or mainly convenience retail" developments.
The DCS proposes a nil rate levy for all other uses and for all development within the strategic sites at Chilton Leys, Ashes Farm and Farriers Road.
The public consultation ends on 13 February. The Council said it expects CIL to be "brought into effect in the summer of 2015".
