Minutes:
The Board
considered a report of the Strategic Director, Enterprise, Community and
Resources, which sought approval to publish the Statement of Community
Involvement (SCI) Local Development Document.
The Board was advised
that the SCI document set out how councils would engage with local communities
and other interested parties in producing their Local Plan and determining
planning applications. It was reported that the Council’s first SCI was adopted
in 2007, revised in 2013, and was now being updated due to legislative changes
in the way that planning documents were prepared.
It was noted
that at its meeting on 14 November 2018, the Environment and Urban Renewal
Policy and Performance Board had considered the document and recommended that
it be adopted by the Executive Board for public consultation. A final version
of the SCI would then be presented to the Board for formal adoption by the
Council.
RESOLVED:
That the draft Statement of Community Involvement, attached to the report at
Appendix A, be approved for the purposes of a six week public consultation.
