Infrastructure Funding Statement

District Councils are now required to produce an Infrastructure Funding Statement (IFS) on an annual basis, as a result of changes to legislation introduced by the Community Infrastructure Levy (Amendment) (England) (No.2) Regulations 2019 (please see Annex A).

This report provides a summary of the financial contributions sought and received from developers for the provision of infrastructure to support development in South Holland, and the subsequent use of those contributions by South Holland District Council. The report covers the financial year 1 April 2021 - 31 March 2022. Detailed information can be viewed within the CSV files accompanying this statement and appendices.

The information within this report will be updated annually and published on the Council's website. This will ensure the most up-to-date information with regards to Section 106 agreements is readily available to members of the public and other interested parties.

The NHS (healthcare), Lincolnshire County Council (education), and Parish Councils (open spaces etc.), will produce their own reports with regards to spend for their specific contributions, as Section 106 monies are transferred to these outside bodies.

Please note the data provided for developer contributions can be subject to change because it represents an estimate at a given point in time, especially in relation to outline planning applications. The details are finalised once a full/reserved matters planning application has been submitted.

South Holland District seeks developer contributions through Section 106 agreements (also known as "planning obligations"). South Holland District Council has not adopted a Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL). CIL is an additional way that local authorities can seek developer contributions. As South Holland District Council is not a CIL charging authority, this Infrastructure Funding Statement relates solely to financial contributions sought through Section 106 agreements which are discussed in more detail within the ISF.
