Capital and Larger Revenue Funding Pots
Section 106 Monies / Community Infrastructure Levy Funding for Outdoor Sport and Play using section 106 housing developer contributions based on the loss of green space due to changes in land use mainly for the development of housing. Section 106 Agreements are sometimes entered into with housing developers to fund sport and play. The methods for collecting such monies are based on existing supplementary planning documentation from Council linked to Local Development Frameworks.
What can be funded? The funding is for capital items only e.g. indoor and outdoor sporting and recreational facilities. Projects must be within specified locations and be open to the general public. Where a local organisation is looking to develop or improve facilities, it needs to include appropriate arrangements for wider community use.
What can be funded? The funding is for capital items only e.g. for new facilities or improvements to existing ones for example: new children's play areas • new sports pitches / areas • new equipment in an existing play area • upgrading of facilities for outdoor sports such as changing rooms • Specialised sports equipment e.g. Cricket Roller •
