Purpose

Approval is sought for the County Council to expend monies
secured under Section 106 of the Town and Country Planning Act
1990, from the Higher Standen Farm development, towards the Castle
Street Clitheroe works.
 
When
consulted by Ribble Valley Borough Council for on a planning
application for the development of a 50.1HA Mixed Use at Standen
Estate, the County Council responded requesting that the developer
should be required to contribute monies annually for a period of 20
years to promote sustainable travel uptake from the
development.
 
Lancashire County Council and Ribble Valley Borough Council have
collaborated on a scheme to enhance sustainable travel provision
and reduce private car use in Clitheroe, which aligns with the
funding held associated with this development.
Authority to take this decision has been delegated under the
Scheme of Delegation to Heads of Service.
