The following written questions have been received from Members:

1) Councillor Fishleigh – Re-Assessment of CIL Calculations:

In 2016 planning permission was given for 60 new homes at Coombe Farm in Saltdean.  This included 24 affordable homes (40%) and  £822,377 in Section 106 contributions.

In 2020 planning permission was granted for a revised scheme of 72 homes with 29 affordable homes (40.2%) and £489,358 in CIL.

So that’s £333,019 less under CIL.

Given this difference, will you please re-look at the way CIL is calculated for larger developments?
