The report papers for this item can be found on pages 19-24 of the Cabinet agenda from 2 March 2021 and its associated appendices.

 

The Cabinet recommendations to Council are as follows:

 

1.    That:

 

a)    The Summary of Representations included as Appendix 1 to this report is noted.

b)    The proposed Council responses to the representations set out in that document are agreed for publication on the Council’s website.

c)    The Director of Planning and the Environment is authorised, following consultation with the Cabinet Member for Planning Services, to make minor amendments to the Summary of Representations and Responses prior to its publication.

d)    That the issues raised in the Summary of Representations document and the other relevant issues summarised in section 9 of this report are noted as key considerations for the ongoing production of the Local Plan.

Minutes:

Cllr Taylor introduced the report. Cllr Taylor then moved the recommendation which was seconded by Cllr Lintill.

 

Cllr Sharp put forward an amendment to ensure a protective policy towards cycle and footpaths. This was seconded by Cllr Barrie.

 

Mr Frost explained that it could be taken as a minor amendment. However, he added that as a consequence of this proposal, new planning policy could be unnecessarily restrictive.

 

Members then voted virtually on the amendment which was not carried.

 

Cllr Bowden then proposed an amendment to part 1 (b) to add the words, with the exceptions of the following:

 

1.    In the response to Policy DM2 on p. 29 of the appendix, last sentence of the 1st paragraph to be amended to read, “The HEDNA 2020 provides key evidence on housing need and highlights the very high affordability ratio in the District. CDC will take into account these consultation responses on affordable housing, alongside the HEDNA evidence, and maximise the proportion of Affordable Housing to the limits of viability as it updates Policy DM2”

2.    In the response to Policy DM 17 on p. 51 of the appendix, the 3rd line of the response to be amended to read, “…accommodate new/cleaner technologies, so that the Policy can become as ambitious as practicable over the Plan period.”

 

The amendment was seconded by Cllr Brown.

 

Mr Frost confirmed that the amendment could be accommodated.

 

Members then discussed the difference in using the word optimise rather that maximise. Cllr Bowden explained that he had considered both but wished to maintain his amendment with the word maximise. Mr Bennett confirmed that legally either word would be acceptable in the context.

 

Members then voted virtually on Cllr Bowden’s amendment which was carried.

 

Members then voted virtually on the substantive recommendations which were carried.
