Minutes:
Cabinet considered a report on the adoption of the Cheshire East Local Plan.
The report recommended that Council approve the adoption of the Cheshire East Local Plan Strategy as part of the Council’s Statutory Development Plan. If Council decided to adopt the Local Plan Strategy, the adoption would be effective from the date the decision was made (i.e. 27 July 2017). From that date, the Local Plan Strategy would immediately form part of the Statutory Development Plan, replacing the a number of ‘saved’ policies from the existing Local Plans.
The Strategic Planning Board and the Cabinet had each been invited to consider the report and make recommendations to Council.
The minutes of the Strategic Planning Board’s meeting of 24 July 2017 setting out the Board’s recommendations to Council were circulated at the meeting.
RESOLVED
That Council be recommended to adopt the Local Plan Strategy, as submitted to the Secretary of State on 20 May 2014, subject to the inclusion of:
(i) the Main Modifications recommended by the Inspector necessary to make the Plan sound (Appendix 1c);
(ii) the schedule of Additional Modifications (Appendix 2).
