Town and Parish CIL
CIL monies passed to parish and town councils
Some of the monies received through CIL can be passed to local councils as a Local, or Neighbourhood, Fund. The regulations state that a minimum of 15% of the funds raised within a parish should be passed as the local portion.
This will rise to 25% where a neighbourhood plan is in place.
This local portion makes sure that infrastructure improvements can be made directly in the areas where the development takes place. Projects may include new equipment for a local play area or new benches in a local park.
You can view specific guidance for parish councils on using their CIL funds below:

Parish and town councils are also required to keep records of payments received and how that money has been spent, further information on the monitoring reports can be found below
