Decision

Authorisation given to extend the completion
date of the Agreement under Section 38 of the Highways Act 1980 for
the residential development off Ashtree Close, Belton, Phase 1,
from 30 March 2023 to 30 March 2025 without amendment to the amount
of supporting bond.

Reasons for the decision

The completed S38 agreement support
development and permit the Council to adopt the roads, footways,
verges, swales, and highway drainage once the development has been
completed to the council’s requirements. The S38 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.
