Community Infrastructure Levy
Bedwas Trethomas & Machen Community Council receives 15% of the Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) receipts from certain liable developments within the BTM area. The CIL is administered by the Planning Service within Caerphilly County Borough Council.
To date the BTM Community Council has received £185,643 to spend on local projects.
In partnership with CCBC, new play facilities in Bryn Park in Trethomas, an outdoor gym in the adjoining field and converting one of the tennis courts by Bedwas Bowling Club into a new Multi Use Games Area (MUGA) have been completed
BTM Community Council has funded planters in each ward, the planting of spring bulbs each year, benches and play equipment. The funds have also been used to support the use of local artists to provide murals, in partnership with schools and other community groups. Knee rail fences have also been installed to protect our green spaces for community use
Suggestions for future projects can be sent to the Clerk. Please note that they should have a lasting benefit for both residents and visitors.
