Issue - meetings

RESOLVED: That the updated Local Development Scheme 2023-2025 incorporating an updated timetable following review by the Local Plan Inspector, attached as Urgent Update: Appendix 1 to the report, be recommended for adoption by Council.

See Record of Decision.

The Lead Member for Planning and Infrastructure introduced the report and explained the Council has an obligation to keep an up-to-date Local Development Scheme (LDS), so local people and stakeholders are kept informed. The timetable of the production of the Gypsy and Traveller DPD has been altered to include regulation 18a and 18b, resulting in amendments to the LDS. The Lead Member set out that the view of the Planning inspector was awaited on the Local Plan Review and the LDS would need to be amended post consideration by the Committee to take this into account. The change would be made prior to Full Council; however, it is not clear if it would be before consideration from the Executive.

RESOLVED: That the Executive be recommended that the Local Development Scheme 2023-2025, attached at Appendix 1 to the report be recommended to the Council for approval.
