surfaces could be secured by condition and soakaways would be appropriate for other storm water. Natural England have requested that the scheme incorporates features to deliver a gain and this can be secured by condition. INFRASTRUCTURE AND DEVELOPER CONTRIBUTIONS Mitigation of the impact of the proposed development on recreational facilities; Dorset Heathlands and Poole Harbour Special Protection Areas; and strategic transport infrastructure is provided for by the Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) Charging Schedule adopted by the Council on 18th September 2012. In accordance with CIL Regulation 28 (1) this confirms that dwellings are CIL liable development and are required to pay CIL in accordance with the rates set out in the Council’s Charging Schedule. The site is within 5km (but not within 400m) of Heathland SSSI and the proposed net increase in dwellings may be acceptable subject to appropriate mitigation of their impact upon the Heathland. As part of the Dorset Heathland Planning Framework a contribution will be taken from all qualifying residential development to fund Strategic Access Management and Monitoring (SAMM) in respect of the internationally important Dorset Heathlands. The charge is based on the cost of delivering SAMM in Poole and is £375 per additional house / £255 per additional flat (plus admin fee). This proposal requires such a contribution. The applicant has submitted a Section 111 Agreement and paid the contribution of £375.00 (plus admin fee). The proposal therefore accords with the provisions of Core Strategy Policies PCS15, PCS28, PCS 36 and PCS37; DPD Policies DM9, IN1 and IN2; and the Dorset Heathlands SPD. FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS This application currently falls into CIL Zone which has a base CIL chargeable rate of C £75 per square metre of chargeable residential floorspace. The precise CIL liability in respect of these proposals will be confirmed in the CIL Regulation 65 Liability Notice which will be issued as soon as practicable after the day on which a planning permission first permits development. The CIL liability will be the product of the chargeable residential floorspace and the base CIL chargeable rate indexed against the BCIS All-in Tender Price Index for November 2012. If this development is granted permission and the dwellings built, the Council might also be eligible to receive government grant under the New Homes Bonus. financial considerations are material to the decision on this application. It is a matter for the decision maker to conclude how much weight should be attached to them. CONCLUSION The scheme would deliver an additional dwelling in an established residential area,
