Seeking funding
Most proposed projects from community organisations are focused on the local neighbourhood.
Any available neighbourhood CIL funding for them will depend upon the locality:
- CIL funds from a development are passed by Dartford Borough Council to the local town/parish council if there is one in that area. They then decide on projects in their area. (Note if there has been no CIL liable development, then no funds will be available. This is the case in Ebbsfleet).
- For other areas, The Dartford Borough Council Community Infrastructure Fund is available using Dartford's neighbourhood CIL.
Other infrastructure proposals - particularly for major projects demonstrating strategic benefits Borough-wide - may be considered for a CIL allocation where guided by agreed policies and priorities (such as Dartford's IDP).
