Who we are consulting and why
We are asking you to help us decide which of these shortlisted projects should receive funding from the Neighbourhood Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) for Bath. The CIL is a charge which is payable for some new building developments, to be spent on projects which benefit the community.
Public consultation on which projects you think most deserve funding is a required part of our decision-making process when allocating CIL money.
Given the significant interest generated in this funding round, the requests for funding exceed the current availability. When the recommendations are submitted, it is likely that some projects will be placed on a waiting list for future funding opportunities.
