Decision

Authorisation given to extend the completion
date of the Agreement under Section 278/38 of the Highways Act 1980
for the residential development off High Street, Belton from 31
December 2025 to 31 December 2027 without amendment to the amount
of supporting bond.

Reasons for the decision

The completed S278/38 agreement supports
development and permits the Council to adopt the roads, footways,
verges, swales, and highway drainage once the development has been
completed to the council’s requirements.

The S278/38 agreement can only legally last for two years and
requires an extension of time if works aren’t complete at the
end of the two year period. This development is not yet completed
and the agreement needs renewing.
