Issue - meetings

The Executive Member for Planning and Growth presented the report. She said that the council undertook a review of the District Plan in October 2023 and decided that it needed to undergo a full review. The change in government meant the secondary legislation on the revised National Planning Policy Framework was not expected until Spring/Summer 2025, and so the council had updated the East Herts Local Development Scheme to show how the District Plan would be updated in the future.

Councillor Glover-Ward proposed that the recommendation in the report be supported. Councillor Goldspink seconded the proposal.

RESOLVED - To recommend to Council that (A) the East Herts Local Development Scheme, attached at Appendix ‘A’, be agreed to take effect from October 2024; and

(B) the Local Development Scheme is published on the Council’s website.
