CIL Spending Boards

All Local CIL Spending Boards have met, and of 23 Local CIL applications submitted, 17 have been agreed with a combined total value of £759,148. There are £508,836 Local CIL funds remaining across the Local CIL pots, the majority in the Staines area. The Staines Local Spending Board will consider a further application this evening (10 Sept) for the Spelthorne Museum Heritage Interpretation Centre (for nearly £148K) originally submitted as a Strategic CIL application.

Local CIL Spending Boards have referred six applications to the Strategic CIL Spending Board, largely due to insufficient funds available in Local CIL pots. The Strategic CIL Spending Board is due to meet this evening and on 23 Sept, for consideration and decision of nine Strategic CIL applications and the referred Local CIL applications.

Let me know if anything else is needed. There’s a detailed table of applications and decisions I can circulate if needed.
