Director of Planning and Building Control
Redbridge Council is reviewing its Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) and Infrastructure Delivery Plan to encourage development, a key area for the Director of Planning and Building Control.
Redbridge Council decided in November 2025 to review its Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) and Infrastructure Delivery Plan (IDP), launching a six-week public consultation. The council aims to encourage various types of development by potentially lowering or removing charges, as agreed at a cabinet meeting on 13 November 2025.
In October 2025, Redbridge Council approved publishing a draft CIL charging schedule for a six-week public consultation, aiming to stimulate development across the borough. The council also approved delegating authority to the Executive Director of Place, Communities and Enterprise for CIL relief decisions over £250,000, to streamline the process.
While no specific future discussions on the Community Infrastructure Levy are scheduled, Redbridge Council's Planning Committee met in April 2026 to discuss various planning applications, including a significant development at Ilford Retail Park.
