Hot weather

The Met Office (opens new window) has forecast hot weather across Guildford. Read our advice during hot weather.

Bin collections

Due to the high temperatures, our bin crews will be starting collections earlier than usual to help keep them safe in the heat. Please make sure your bins are out the night before, as collections will take place from 5.30am for the rest of the week. Thank you for helping our crews work safely during the hot weather.

Find out about Developer Contributions and Community Infrastructure Levy

At the moment, we use section 106 agreements to secure developer contributions for new infrastructure.

The Council has not introduced a Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL). 

The Government intended to introduce a new Infrastructure Levy following publication of the Levelling Up and Regeneration Act (2023) although it has since indicated an intent not to progress this. We will be monitoring further developments and any implications for the Council. We have not yet set a timetable for introducing a CIL.
