Minutes:
The Committee received an information report on a recent determination of an application to add a bridleway between Goldford Lane, Larkton and Long Lane, Bickerton to the Definitive Map by Cheshire West and Chester Council.
The application had been made to Cheshire County Council in 2007 for a bridleway to be added to the Definitive Map and Statement along a route commonly known as Dean’s Lane. At the time of Local Government Re-organisation the application was allocated to Cheshire West and Chester as the applicant resided in that authority.
Cheshire West and Chester Council (CWAC) sought agreement from Cheshire East Public Rights of Way to investigate and determine the application with a view to making an order that would modify both definitive maps. CWAC had determined the application in accordance with their ‘call-in’ procedures. This procedure involved a report being prepared and published for a period of 28 days during which a member of their Public Rights of Way Committee could call it in for discussion at a meeting of the Committee. If not called in, the Head of Culture and Recreation could confirm the recommendations made in the report as a decision of the Council.
The application was not called in and the report was approved on 3 October 2011. A Definitive Map Modification Order was made on 25 November and will be advertised in early December for the statutory 42 days.
RESOLVED:
That the report be noted.
