No change from last month. Awaiting costs associated with Celebrate Winterslow Day - ITEMS FOR DISCUSSION
- 3rd November Site Allocation DPD meeting with WC Sarah Hughes and Christopher Miner
Phase 1 is initial Settlement Boundary review. PC has responded to an informal consultation.
Phase 2 is Site Allocations and they haven’t started on this yet.
We left them with a full pack of info (Latest summary of NP findings, full list of all sites considered, list and map of proposed sites, appraisal summary for each proposed site)
Our input was welcomed and WC said we were ahead of the curve. Without such input WC approach to site allocations would be entirely based on an analysis of SHLAA sites with little community consultation.
We can forget doing an SEA. They will do it as part of their Site Allocations DPD.
Next step is formal consultation by WC on proposed allocations in the New Year. There may be an informal consultation with PCs.
End date remains Dec 2015.
Next steps for us are to:
- update our proposals after Celebrate Winterslow Day
- seek landowners views on our proposed development sites
- present amended information to WC
Mike T reported on the WC meeting at the Parish Council at the 3rd November meeting.
- Status of all Actions in Progress
The list of outstanding actions was discussed and updated. See attached
- Celebrate Winterslow Day
Final arrangements were discussed and agreed, including:
presentation content
advance publicity
recording number of visitors and feedback
manning of our display
- AOB
None.
