S.106 Refunds - Belvedere Development Cambridge
Richard Taylor made this Freedom of Information request to Cambridge City Council
The request was successful.
From: Richard Taylor
23 July 2010
Dear Cambridge City Council,
In March 2010 Cambridge City Council refunded a series of S.106
contributions which had been paid in respect of The Belvedere
development on Homerton Street / Hills Road in Cambridge. The total
returned was £49,894.26.
The payments refunded included:
* A £34,575 affordable housing contribution.
* Contributions to informal open space of £14,523.00
Could you please let me know:
1. Why these refunds were made.
2. If, across the city, there have been any refunds of S.106
contributions since the 1st of April 2009 because the council have
failed to spend the funds within the time period specified by the
S.106 agreement.
Many thanks,
