Is Key decision?: Yes
Is subject to call in?: Yes
That the Executive Member for Environment, Sports, Environmental Heath and Leisure and Libraries:
1) Approves the submission of a holding objection to the West Berkshire Minerals and Waste Local Plan Preferred options document on the basis that: West Berkshire Council’s site selection is reconsidered to ensure supply across the wider area of Berkshire and in particular given the potential delivery problems outlined in paragraph 4.17. Not ensuring supply would result in the Plan being found unsound at Examination;
2) Approves that Wokingham Borough Council ask West Berkshire Council to provide clarification that it can meet its sand and gravel extraction quota;
3) Approves that Wokingham Borough Council ask West Berkshire Council to re-name and amend the wording of Policy 3 (self-sufficiency in waste management) given that it will still rely on neighbouring authorities in Berkshire for some waste processing, and
4) Approves that Wokingham Borough Council ask West Berkshire Council to continue to engage with its neighbours as work on the Minerals and Waste Local Plan progresses, through the Duty to Co-operate mechanism
