Useful Information​
​​​​​​​​​​
In certain circumstances, developers have to make contributions to the town to ensure that they mitigate the impact of their development. This can come in the form of physical contributions (such as play areas or highway improvements), or financial contributions. These contributions can come in the form of a section 106 agreement, or a Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL). The below document explains the difference between the two. ​
