Chair's Communications

Minutes:

33.1    The Chair explained that Item D on the agenda has been withdrawn, temporarily, It was anticipated that it would now be considered at the next scheduled meeting on the Committee on 3 November 2021.Item B is here thanks to a new protocol whereby applications technically classed as ‘major’ can, if apparently uncontroversial, be determined under delegated powers, but can still be called to Committee if any of the parties’ Lead Councillors deem it necessary. In this case, both Cllr Theobald and himself had felt it would benefit from a debate here.

 

33.2    Much more excitingly; on 30 September, Brighton & Hove City Council launched a joint consultation on two important plans which we were currently developing. These were our fifth Local Transport Plan, known as LTP5, and our Local Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plan, the so called LCWIP. LTP5 sets out our vision and priorities for transport and travel across the city, up to 2030, and what steps needed to be taken in order to deliver them. The LCWIP presents our plans for the development of strategic walking and cycling networks, and active travel improvements across the city. Resident and other stakeholder participation in the consultation is crucial, and we are promoting involvement in various ways; inviting everyone to have their say. This will include drop-in public information sessions at Jubilee Library.

Outlines of the LTP5 and LCWIP proposals and the consultation process are available at: www.brighton-hove.gov.uk/onejourneybetter. This page also includes a link to the online survey and information on how to order paper copies. The consultation was open until 15th November 2021.

 

33.3    RESOLVED – That the Chair’s Communications be received and noted.
