Additional documents:

Minutes:

The Leader submitted a recommendation from the Executive on the East Hertfordshire Local Development Scheme. 

 

Councillor Haysey said the Council now had an adopted district plan, so the focus was now on the timelines for the various supplementary planning documents which were required.  She proposed and Councillor Bolton seconded, a motion supporting the recommendations in the report. 

 

Councillor Goldspink said she was happy to support this motion. She noted with pleasure the fact that reference was made in the report to the importance of community involvement and to requirements to reassess sites which might be subject to changing economic circumstances. She asked how Members could be kept involved. 

 

Councillor Haysey said she recognised the importance of such assessment and that the Council did monitor changing circumstances. 

 

Councillor Curtis said he was concerned regarding an aspect affecting his ward, the proposed quarry at the Hunsdon site. He asked whether the Council would stand up for residents of the surrounding villages.  

 

Councillor Haysey said the Council had taken a position, and did not consider there was any reason to change that position. 

 

After being put to the meeting and a vote taken, the motion was declared CARRIED.

 

RESOLVED - that the Local Development Scheme July 2020, as set out in the report, be agreed to take effect from July 2020.
