Minutes:

The Council was informed that the Executive Board, at its meeting held on the 31st July, 2017 (Minute 11 refers) had received the Carmarthenshire Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) Update and Progress Report on the potential introduction of a CIL within Carmarthenshire. It was noted that the report provided updates on the devolved nature of CILs in Wales and its future in a national context which included the recent independent review of CIL’s commissioned by the Department of Communities and Local Government. It also outlined the potential forthcoming changes and implications resulting in one of the Executive Board recommendations to Council being that any future progression on the adoption of a Carmarthenshire CIL should be held in abeyance pending the outcome of future considerations by the Welsh Government as a result of the Wales Act 2017.

 

UNANIMOUSLY RESOLVED that the following recommendations of the Executive Board be adopted:

 

“That the Carmarthenshire Community Infrastructure Levy Update and Progress report be received;

 

That the current position in relation to the future of CIL both within a national and within a Welsh context be noted;

 

That progress on the preparation of a Carmarthenshire CIL be held in abeyance pending the outcome of future considerations of the Welsh Government as a result of the Wales Act 2017;

 

That a further report is presented when there is clear indication on the future of CIL on any changes to the CIL regulations or proposals for a replacement tariff;

 

That the progress to date be noted and that the representations received be utilised to inform any future work on CIL or any replacement.”
