Decision

RESOLVED

 

(1)           
That Cabinet accepted the Examiner’s report
and recommended modifications to the Plan as set out in the
Decision Statement at Appendix 1 of the report in their entirety,
and that the Plan, as amended, be taken forward to a referendum
within the Parish as outlined in the report.

 

(2)           
That following a successful referendum, if more than
half of those voting in the referendum vote in favour of the
Neighbourhood Plan, the Managing Director should bring the
Neighbourhood Plan into effect (‘Made’).
 
REASONS FOR DECISION – The Brampton
Neighbourhood Plan has been subject to examination by an
independent examiner. The Examiner’s view is that subject to
specified modifications the Plan meets the Basic Conditions and
other relevant legal requirements. It is considered that, subject
to the modifications set out in the Decision Statement, the Draft
Neighbourhood Plan would meet the legal requirements and Basic
Conditions as set out in legislation, and that the Plan should
proceed to Referendum.
 
OTHER OPTIONS CONSIDERED AND REJECTED – The option of not accepting the Examiner’s recommendations
was considered but rejected for the reasons set out in the
report.
 
Please note
that this was not a Key Decision so can be implemented by officers
with immediate effect.
