Minutes:
The Committee considered a report which outlined the investigation into the application to amend the Definitive Map and Statement to add a Public Footpath between Mill Lane (UY1177) to junction with Footpath No.8 Hassall from A-B-C-D-E.
The Committee considered the evidence submitted and researched in the application to add a Public Footpath in the Parish of Hassall. The Committee agreed that the balance of documentary evidence did not support the case that a public footpath subsists along the route between points A-B-C-D-E as shown on plan No. WCA/043 at Appendix 1 of the report.
RESOLVED: Unanimously
That The Highways & Transport Committee
1. Agree that the application to add a footpath as shown between points A-B-C-D-E on Plan No. WCA/043 at Appendix 1 of the report is refused on the grounds that there is not any robust evidence to overturn the legal presumption that the Definitive Map and Statement are correct.
Councillor M Brooks left the meeting after consideration of this item and did not return.
