Consultation on Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) charges open until 25 September

You have one more week to share your views on proposed changes to the borough’s Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) charges.

CIL helps to pay for important infrastructure and community facilities across Royal Greenwich from roads and transport to schools and doctors’ surgeries.

CIL was vital in funding the new Elizabeth line station in Woolwich. It’s also helped to support a wealth of small projects across the entire borough: upgrading community centres, sports facilities and parks, playground equipment and so much more.

Give your feedback by 25 September: royalgreenwich.gov.uk/cil-consultation
