To consider the five year review of the adopted Local Plan.

Resolved:

2.  That the Head of Planning Policy and Economic Development, in consultation with the Planning Portfolio Holder be delegated to carry out amendments of a minor nature to improve the presentation of the documents and correct any typographical errors.

The report of the Planning Portfolio Holder sought approval for the five year review of the Test Valley Borough Local Plan 2011-2029 and for this to be published.

With the support of the Planning Advisory Service (PAS) the review had been undertaken by the Council through preparing an assessment using relevant parts of the PAS Local Plan Toolkit. This assessment had then been subject to review by independent consultants appointed by PAS to assist the Council.

The outcome of the five year review would assist in informing how preparation of the next Local Plan, which had commenced, now moves forward to the formal consultation stages.

Having considered the options and for the reasons set out in the report, Cabinet agreed to the following:

1.  That the five year review of the Test Valley Borough Local Plan 2011-2029 Annexes to the report be approved and published in accordance with Regulation 10A The Town and Country Planning (Local Planning) (England) Regulations 2012 (as amended).
