To consider agreement of the proposed strategic Community Infrastructure Levy Terms of Reference following the dissolution of the Spelthorne Joint Committee.

The Committee considered a report on the proposed Strategic Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) Terms of Reference for the Working Group following the dissolution of the Spelthorne Joint Committee.

The Spelthorne Joint Committee had previously been the final decision maker with regard to CIL funding.  Following its dissolution a new final decision maker was required.  The proposal was for the Environment and Sustainability Committee to become the new final decision maker.  The Committee was asked to agree the proposed changes to the Terms of Reference (ToR) for the CIL Working Group to enable this.

The Committee noted that the ToR had been amended to move from accepting applications for CIL on an ad-hoc basis, to a structured annual spending round, in agreement with the CIL Working Group.

The Committee resolved to agree the proposed Strategic Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) Terms of Reference (ToR) following the dissolution of the Spelthorne Joint Committee.
