Saving of Waste Local Plan Policies
Decision Maker: Environment Cabinet Member Meeting, Cabinet Member for Environment
Decision status: Recommendations Approved
Is Key decision?: Yes
Is subject to call in?: Yes
Purpose:
To seek approval for saving of policies in the Waste Local Plan beyond February 2009.
Decision:
(1) That the Cabinet Member for Environment approves the saving of policies in the Waste Local Plan beyond the statutory minimum of three years (ie. beyond February 2009).
Reasons for the decision:
1. The WLP provides the statutory decision making framework used to judge future applications for planning permission for waste developments in the City. Replacement policies will not be developed for some time, therefore, under the Planning & Compulsory Purchase Act (2004), the Council needs to apply to the Secretary of State for these policies to be saved beyond February 2009.
Alternative options considered:
1. If the WLP is not saved beyond February 2009 then the City Council will lack key policies for making decisions on the management of waste and judging the acceptability of planning applications for waste facilities.
