PAS County Council CIL Seminar – Preparations for CIL Virtual team of officers from a range of services were tasked to work on preparation of County Council for CIL in 2010 Included reports and presentations to County Members and Local Committees and workshops for officers Focus was on working with the authorities who wished to take CIL forward whilst providing regular updates to County Members and reports to Local Committees. Local Committees are made up of County and District/Borough Members but were County Committees rather than true joint Committees Some authorities were eager to work with the County Council particularly those who utilised the Surrey Planning Infrastructure Scheme (PIC) a s106 tariff that raised a significant amount of contributions in those areas for both authorities Elmbridge were the first authority to adopt PIC in Surrey in 2007 To date nearly £14M of County contributions have been collected in the seven of the eleven authority areas who adopted the PIC scheme, or elements thereof.

PAS County Council CIL Seminar – Governance arrangements in Surrey Elmbridge were the first authority to both adopt and commence collection of CIL, in April 2013, and governance arrangements were put in place in relation to how CIL would be allocated and spent For the strategic CIL monies a Strategic Spending Board of five Members has been established by Elmbridge and the first meeting took place on 29 th September 2014 A number of bids were made to the Board and the following were successful – Esher Transport Study £50,000 Burwood Road School safety measures £85,000 Long Ditton Schools safety measures £90,500 Fairmile Lane safety improvements £22,500 Stoke Road speed management measures £10,000 Oxshott speed management measures £25,000 Burhill Primary School expansion £150,000

PAS County Council CIL Seminar - Governance arrangements in Surrey (2) The one scheme that was not found to be acceptable was a cycle path scheme at £330,000 which was considered too expensive and it was felt did not meet the needs of the local population With regard to the spending of the ‘meaningful proportion’ of CIL which has to be handed down to communities, settlement-specific Spending Boards have been created for the designated seven settlement areas, the release of such funds being contingent on having a clear delivery plan in place Elmbridge have collected £2M and invoiced for a further £1M since adoption Although Epsom & Ewell have commenced the collection of CIL detailed discussions have yet to take place as regards how the governance arrangements will work going forward and what role the Local Committee will have in the process To date only one other authority are considering the governance model they wish to adopt

PAS County Council CIL Seminar - Governance arrangements in Surrey (3) Woking have yet to commence the collection of CIL but detailed discussions have taken place as regards how governance will operate in their area and a report is being taken to the newly constituted Joint Local Committee on 3 rd December which will seek to introduce a process whereby the Joint Local Committee will determine the spending of CIL, once the CIL regime is in operation. Clearly there are a number of different models for governance that could be introduced by each of the authorities but at present it is considered that the Woking model is one that appears to offer the most open and transparent collaborative process for deciding which schemes the CIL monies should be used to support. The authorities in Surrey are at different stages in their preparations for CIL and as a result the adoption and collection of CIL will be subject to a variety of timescales and could, as a result, affect the ability of the County Council to support development in each of the areas by securing and providing infrastructure within the required timeframe.

PAS County Council CIL Seminar – Horley Masterplan The Horley Master Plan (HMP) is a comprehensive and co-ordinated strategy to deliver 2,600 new homes supported by an extensive package of infrastructure and service improvements As part of the HMP the County Council and Reigate & Banstead BC identified a range of public transport, highways, education, recreation and community improvements that would be required which includes both developers direct provision, such as on site infrastructure, as well as financial contributions towards infrastructure and service improvements To date two Section 106 agreements (S106) have been completed for the NE Sector (710 dwellings) and a further agreement has been negotiated for the NW Sector (1,510 dwellings) with other contributions being secured through the Horley Infrastructure Tariff, which is a tariff paid on every new residential unit on the smaller sites (380 units).

PAS County Council CIL Seminar – Horley Masterplan (2) As part of its commitment to the HMP, the County Council has already defrayed considerable expenditure to deliver a number of key infrastructure and service improvements in advance of developer contributions being received The Borough Council is proposing to introduce differential rates for residential development including a levy of £120 per on new homes in urban areas and a higher levy of £180 per sqm for the NWS The purpose of a higher rate for the NWS is to ensure that in the unlikely event that the latest S106 is not signed, or the Developer Consortium resubmits a fresh application for the development after CIL has been adopted, sufficient monies can still be secured for the identified infrastructure in order to deliver the HMP Under this scenario, the Councils would continue to secure some elements of the infrastructure from the NWS through S106, whilst other elements would be pursued through CIL, but with a formal agreement with the Borough as to how CIL receipts will be allocated (top sliced) to ensure that the identified package of HMP infrastructure and services are funded
