Decision details

That Cabinet approve the District Council consultation response to the Southwell Amended Neighbourhood Plan as set out in Appendix A of the report.

Reasons for Decision:

To allow District Council to submit a consultation response on the Southwell Amended Neighbourhood Plan.

Options Considered:

It is necessary for the District Council to run the Regulation 16 Consultation on the Southwell Amended Neighbourhood Plan because Southwell Town Council have submitted a Neighbourhood Plan proposal under Regulation 15 (1) of The Neighbourhood Planning (General) Regulations 2012. Officers’ comments are necessary to address issues around consistency with national and local planning policy, and to improve the precision and effectiveness of the Neighbourhood Plan in reaching decisions on development proposals in Southwell Parish.
