The Parish Council takes a keen and active interest in all local planning issues and is regularly consulted by the Local Planning Authority, Maidstone Borough Council (MBC), over applications received from within the Parish and, occasionally, received from outside the Parish when it has been deemed to be of potential interest to our residents.
Hunton Parish Council responds to all consultations from MBC on behalf of the Parish. Maidstone Borough Council will take account, as they deem appropriate, of any and all comments which are communicated to them within the specified time limits by individuals and/or organisations. Individual residents of the Parish are encouraged to consult the published details of the submitted applications and make known to both MBC, and Hunton Parish Council, any significant comments they may have.
Community Infrastructure Levy
The Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) is a charge on new developments to help deliver infrastructure to support development in the area. Most new development which creates additional floor space of 100 square metres or more, or creates a new dwelling, is potentially liable for the levy. An amount of CIL can be spent locally, to provide infrastructure in the local community.
