Purpose

Broadstairs & St Peters
Town Council have reviewed their neighbourhood plan. It was
published and formally submitted to the Council and has
subsequently been assessed by an independent Examiner. The
Examiner’s report has also been published. It supports the
proposed Neighbourhood Plan Review, with some minor modifications,
and recommends that it be subject to a referendum.
 
The Council has to issue a
Decision Statement as to whether or not it accepts the
recommendations in the Examiners report, and, if not, what actions
would be necessary. The Council also has to consider whether the
draft Plan meets the “basic conditions” for a
Neighbourhood Plan. The draft Neighbourhood Plan, along with the
modifications proposed by the Examiner, is supported.

1. 
That the draft Neighbourhood Plan Review be modified as set out in
this report, and
 
2. 
That the Council issues a Decision Statement that it accepts the
recommendations in the Examiners report, and the draft
Neighbourhood Plan can proceed to referendum.
