CIL Bids in Weybridge
When most new developments in Weybridge are built the developer has to pay a tax referred to as CIL (Community Infrastructure Levy) to help fund any increased needs locally, as a consequence of the building. This infrastructure can be equipment for schools, health centres, community centres or safer or better designed streets. CIL funds may only be used for new or enhanced facilities and not for staffing, repair or general maintenance of existing facilities. Typically in Elmbridge, towns have an allocation and bids can be made by residents or groups in the town for funds for a project. See here your most frequently asked questions. This year in Weybridge there are seven applications for CIL funding. We are interested to hear your views on these. Do you support any of these projects? Or would you like to comment on them?

Some projects are uncosted, do not have permission of the landowner or do not necessarily enhance our infrastructure. But what do you think
