The Cabinet Member considered the proposed response to the consultation in respect of Part 1 of the Integrated Regional Strategy (RS2010).
The Council had been consulted by 4NW (the Regional Leaders Board) and the North West Development Agency (NWDA) on Part 1 of a new Integrated Regional Strategy – RS2010. It was important that Cheshire East Council responded to the consultation as this would help secure a sound basis for investment decisions and economic policy development. In particular, RS2010 would provide the context for the future development of Crewe and Macclesfield and the Borough’s sustainable towns and rural areas.
The Environment and Prosperity Scrutiny Committee had been informally consulted on the proposed response and their views were reported to the Cabinet Member.
RESOLVED:
That the responses to the consultation document RS2010 Part 1, as set out in the Appendix to the Report, be approved for submission to 4NW and the NWDA.
