Community Infrastructure Levy

Community Infrastructure Levies (CIL) are one-off financial contributions made by landowners to support essential community facilities, such as:

  • Sporting facilities
  • Maternal and child health centres
  • Multi-purpose buildings

These facilities are identified in the Development Contributions Plan Overlay (DCPO) of the Latrobe Planning Scheme for specific growth areas.

Who Pays the Community Infrastructure Levy?

  • Property Owners – The CIL is usually payable before a building permit is issued, as required by the Planning and Environment Act 1987 and the Building Act 1993.
  • Developers – In some cases, developers may choose to pay the CIL at the time of subdivision.

To confirm if CIL has been paid for your property, please contact Latrobe City Council.
