Haringey Council's Cabinet has approved the allocation of funds from the Neighbourhood Community Infrastructure Levy (NCIL) for Round 2 projects. The decision, made during a meeting on Tuesday, March 10, 2026, follows a consultation period on how to spend the collected levy.

The NCIL is a portion of the Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) receipts that local councils can set aside to fund infrastructure improvements, development addressing local demands, or other related initiatives. Haringey Council's adopted approach, outlined in its CIL Governance document from 2020, stipulates that NCIL should be spent on neighbourhood projects, with pooled receipts across the borough, except in designated Neighbourhood Forum Areas.

The borough is divided into nine NCIL areas, each of which underwent consultation to identify spending priorities. The proposed projects align with the Haringey Deal and the Haringey Vision 2035.

The Cabinet's decision to approve the spending of NCIL on Round 2 projects was made to ensure that funds are utilized in line with community priorities and to avoid delays in investment. The council's CIL Governance document commits to identifying and implementing spending priorities through community consultation, and most projects funded under Round 1 have already been delivered.

Specific projects and their costs for Round 2 have been detailed in Table 3 of the relevant report. While the total allocated amount from the NCIL for these projects is not explicitly stated as a single figure, the report provides a comprehensive breakdown of individual project costs. This ensures transparency and allows residents to see exactly where the funds are being directed.

The Cabinet's approval of these funds is a key step in delivering on the council's commitment to community-led infrastructure improvements. Further details on the approved projects can be found in the NCIL Spending Round 2 Cabinet Report NCIL Spending Round 2 Cabinet Report v5.01 12.2.2026 and the associated consultation summary Appendix A NCIL Round 2 Consultation Summary 13.2.26.
