How NCIL works
We collect money for infrastructure from new developments through the Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL). This is a charge based on the floorspace of new developments.
Legislation allows 15% of CIL to be spent on infrastructure or 'anything else that is concerned with addressing the demands that development places on an area'. In places with an adopted Neighbourhood Plan, this increases to 25% of CIL. This is called Neighbourhood Community Infrastructure Levy (NCIL).
NCIL may be used to deliver a wide range of local projects, including:
- road and footpath improvements
- greenspace/park improvements
- tree planting
- new or improved play spaces and facilities
- community safety measures, for example CCTV, lighting
- new or improved cycling facilities
- traffic calming measures
- improvements to school grounds and buildings
- the improvement of local facilities like:
- libraries
- community centres
- sports halls
- cultural venues
The process for deciding how we spend NCIL is set out in our CIL Governance document. NCIL spend projects must be decided following consultation with local people.

There are different NCIL spend arrangements where a community has an adopted Neighbourhood Plan in place. In Haringey there are 2 Neighbourhood Forums:
Only Highgate currently has an adopted neighbourhood plan which means that 25% of CIL may be spent on NCIL projects.
