Maldon District Council levy rates

The Government has set different levy rates for each local authority area.

For developments within the Maldon District, the rates are:

Type of development

Maldon levy rate

Previously developed land (brownfield)

£16.90 per m²

Non-previously developed land

£33.81 per m²

The previously developed land rate is 50% of the standard rate.

Whether a development qualifies for the previously developed land rate is determined in accordance with the Government's regulations. In general, at least 75% of the land within the red-line boundary of the relevant planning permission must meet the definition of previously developed land.

Permitted development residential schemes are charged at the previously developed land rate.

The Government's full guidance on the rates and previously developed land definition is available on GOV.UK.
