In addition to viability matters S106 Management can also provide support in discussing CIL matters with local authorities.

CIL is a form-based taxation rather than a policy based cost, and therefore generally not open to negotiation.

However, it is a complicated procedure with many caveats in the legislation – and it is often incorrectly applied by councils, particularly in cases of change of use to residential and small extensions.

S106M acted for the applicant in this case, flagging errors with the CIL calculation with the relevant parties and ensuring this was calculated correctly within the interpretation of the correct legal position.

This resulted in a significant saving on the originally issued CIL liability notice.
