Infrastructure Funding Statement 2024 to 2025 - Chapter 3
S106 expenditure between 1 April 2024 to 31 March 2025
Money spent (including transfers)
The dashboard below sets out the infrastructure provided with the S106 funds spent or internally transferred during the monitoring period and which developments the payments came from. The total amount spent during 2024 to 2025 is £1,262,743.61.
For the purposes of this report, the definition of ‘spent’ includes all S106 funds that have been transferred out of the S106 account, and either transferred externally to Kent County Council (KCC) or used to pay for invoices or transferred internally to teams within the council to use for the projects identified.
KCC is required to record all infrastructure funding received from local planning authorities within the county. This is reported through their own Infrastructure Funding Statement.
