Benington Conservation Area Character Appraisal

Minutes:

The Executive Member for Planning and Growth considered a report on the Benington Conservation Area appraisal and management plan, following public consultation.  She referred to representations which had been received, some of which had expressed concern regarding the exclusion of land east of Duck Lane from the conservation area.  These concerns had been addressed with the additional paragraphs which had been included in the plan to reflect the protection afforded by the adopted District Plan. 

 

The Leader thanked all involved for their excellent work, and acknowledged the work of the parish councils in highlighting any issues. 

 

Councillor J Goodeve moved, and Councillor S Rutland-Barsby seconded, a motion to support the recommendations to Council now detailed. 

 

RECOMMENDED – that (A) the responses to the public consultation be noted and the Officer responses and proposed changes to the Benington Conservation Area Appraisal and Management Plan be supported;

 

(B) the Head of Planning and Building Control, in consultation with the Executive Member for Planning and Growth, be authorised to make any further minor and consequential changes to the document which may be necessary; and

 

(C) the Benington Conservation Area Appraisal and Management Plan be adopted.
