    • Printed decision PDF 16 KB

    Decision Maker: Cabinet

    Decision status: Recommendations Approved

    Is Key decision?: Yes

    Is subject to call in?: Yes

    Decision:

    To recommend to Council that the recommendations within the report are endorsed, supporting the Huntingdonshire Local Plan 2036: Proposed Submission 2017.

     

    To endorse the Local Development Scheme: December 2017, as detailed at Appendix B of the report now submitted, be endorsed.

    Reasons for the decision:

    It is considered that the Proposed Submission 2017 Plan has been prepared in line with the relevant legal requirements and is sound, and should be the Plan the Council intends to submit to the Secretary of State for independent examination. It should therefore be published for representations with the intention that the Plan be submitted to the Secretary of State by the end of March 2018. Policies in the Local Plan will have more weight, and thereby provide more certainty, when they have been published and there is no counter reason why publication should be delayed.

    Alternative options considered:

    N/a

    Resource Implications:

    A single Planning Policy earmarked reserve was agreed at the Cabinet meeting of 17th March 2016 enabling money to be drawn down to support production of the Local Plan.
