The Panel considered the consolidated East Herts District Plan Pre-Submission Version 2016 and sought agreement to publish the Plan for Consultation under Regulation 19 of the Town and Country (Local Planning) (England) Regulations 2012 as amended. The Officer explained that the Pre-Submission District Plan set out the vision, policies and proposals to guide future development and the use of land within East Herts over the Plan-period to 2033.
The Chairman referred to the lengthy and complicated process in developing the plan and thanked all Officers for their role in developing the Pre-Submission District Plan.
