Committee is asked to:

1.    Approve CIL funding for the following applications, following consideration by the Strategic CIL Task Group and recommendation to the Environment & Sustainability Committee:

a.    Strategic CIL funding applications for:

-       Surrey Police – installation of 10 ANPR cameras

-       Play area improvements and renovations in three parks

-       Ashford Park Primary School – 3G pitch, community hub and outdoor learning area

b.    Six Local CIL applications referred from Local CIL spending boards.

2.    Approve the amendments to existing, agreed CIL funding allocations, also considered by the Strategic CIL Task Group and recommended to this Committee as follows:

i.              To repurpose £21,065 unused funds from a previously approved in 2023 ANPR cameras bid, to the current application for Surrey Policy ANPR cameras, as set out in the report;

ii.            In respect of Playing Pitch improvements, for a value of £68,050 approved in 2022. There is no change to the value agreed but the number of playing pitches included has reduced, due to the lack of availability of matched funds and based on an updated assessment of need, feasibility and potential benefits.

The Committee considered recommendations from Local CIL and Strategic CIL Task groups to approve applications for funding towards projects in the borough. Two amendments to previously approved applications had also been submitted for consideration. The Committee were advised that payments for projects were not made until the project had been completed.

The Committee acknowledged the benefit the projects would bring to the borough and expressed their support for the various projects.
