Decision details

To consider for submission to the Government

Recommendation from the meeting of the Cabinet Housing and Planning Panel on 16 March 2017 on the adoption of the revised Scheme timetable for the preparation of the Welwyn Hatfield Local Plan.

(1)          The Decision Taken

RESOLVED:

That the Cabinet agrees that the revised Local Development Scheme be adopted.

(2)          Reasons for the Decision

The LDS was the Council’s official timetable for the preparation and adoption of the Local Plan and other planning documents for the Borough.

The revised timetable reflected that it had taken longer than originally anticipated to analyse some 3,000 representations received to the Proposed Submission Local Plan consultation exercise.

(Note: There were no declarations of interest by a Member(s) in respect of the matter decided).
