RECOMMENDATION TO THE COUNCIL

 

That the revised Local Development Scheme 2018-2021 be approved.

 

Minutes:

The Cabinet received and considered the agenda report and its appendix in the agenda supplement.

 

This item was presented by Mrs S Taylor (Cabinet Member for Planning Services).

 

In attendance for this matter were Mr A Frost (Director of Planning and Environment), Mr M Allgrove (Planning Policy Manager) and the following members of the CDC Planning Policy team: Ms H Chivers, Mrs V Dobson, Mrs K Dower, Mrs T Flitcroft, Mr T Guymer and Mrs V Owen.

 

Mrs Taylor presented the report, saying that the Local Development Scheme (LDS) identified and timetabled the planning documents to be prepared by CDC for its plan area over a three-year period, and the version of the LDS appended to the report was for the period 2018 to 2021. She drew attention to the revised timetable for the Local Plan Review. As mentioned in the preceding agenda item, the timetable was now very tight and there was no room for slippage if CDC wished to attain its target date of July 2020. The Local Plan Review would require work to commence on development plan documents (DPD) such as Gypsy and Traveller Sites and the Site Allocation DPD. Dates had not yet been set but it was anticipated that work would start on them shortly. The LDS was constantly kept under review and updated. It was published on the CDC’s website to enable the community and stakeholders to find out about the planning policies for their area and the timetable for the production of the documents.

 

Mrs E Lintill (Deputy leader of the Council, Cabinet Member for Community Services and one of the two CDC members for the Petworth ward) pointed out with reference to the final bullet point in section 4.1 in the revised LDS document (page 280 in the agenda supplement) that it should be made clear that only a small part of Petworth was in the Chichester Local Plan area.

 

Mr Allgrove noted the need to clarify that and added that the same applied to Lavant (the penultimate bullet point).

 

Decision

 

The Cabinet voted unanimously to make the recommendation set out below.    

 

RECOMMENDATION TO THE COUNCIL

 

That the revised Local Development Scheme 2018-2021 be approved.
