Minute 23 refers

The Executive considered and supported the recommendations of the District Planning Executive Panel meeting held on 25 February 2016, on the Strategic Land Availability Assessment (SLAA) Round 3 site assessments.

RECOMMENDED – that the SLAA Round 3 site assessments, and the ongoing process for completing the SLAA, be noted.

(see also Minute 634)

Consideration was given to a report updating the Panel on the Strategic Land Availability Assessment (SLAA).  The Panel was advised that a number of sites still needed to be assessed.  In the main, these were sites on the edge of the main settlements.  However in addition, the sites that had formed Rounds 1 and 2 also needed to be re-assessed in order to ensure that the information previously presented was still up to date and that the assessments reflected the requirements of updated national planning guidance. 

Officers advised that this further work would take place in Round 4.  It was currently envisaged that a stakeholder consultation would be undertaken on draft assessments in spring 2016.  Following that, a final comprehensive version of the SLAA containing all sites would be completed prior to undertaking a Pre-Submission consultation on the District Plan.

The Panel supported the recommendation now detailed.

RECOMMENDED – that the SLAA Round 3 site assessments, and the ongoing process for completing the SLAA, be noted.
