4 stories · discussed at 1 council meeting · 5 councils

Enfield Council is updating on Jubilee Park improvements funded by CIL, as Newham Council debated potential CIL income reductions.

Enfield Council provided an update in September 2026 on Jubilee Park improvements, for which funding has been secured. These enhancements are expected to include replacing aging play equipment. Separately, Newham Council debated in November 2025 the potential impact of a government package that could reduce Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) income by 50 per cent, raising concerns about funding for local infrastructure projects.

In November 2025, Greenwich Council opened Round 7 of its Neighbourhood Growth Fund, making 15% of its Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) income available for community-led projects. Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) funding represents a charge that local authorities can levy on new developments to help fund local infrastructure and services.
