Agenda item

The Committee received a report concerning the Local Development Scheme (LDS), the programme for preparing the City’s planning policies, which set out in general terms the subject matter of planning policy documents and the timetable for preparing them.

The LDS needed to be periodically reviewed to keep it up to date and an updated LDS had been prepared setting out the programme for the review of the Local Plan, along with other planning policy documents.

In response to a question the Director of the Built Environment confirmed that any changes to the programme would be reported in the Members Bulletin, and it was agreed that these should also be reported to Committee members in advance of this.

RESOLVED – To approve the updated Local Development Scheme for publication to come into effect on 13 June 2017.
