Minutes:

The Executive considered a report setting out a proposed Shinfield Neighbourhood Plan which had been updated by the Parish Council following consultation responses to the pre-submission draft plan.

 

The Executive Member for Planning and Highways advised Members that Officers had been working very closely with Shinfield Parish Council to produce a Neighbourhood Plan that was aligned to the Council’s own policies and guidelines and the intention was for the Plan to go through a formal 6 week consultation.  In addition the Council would begin the process of appointing an examiner to examine the Plan in public.

 

Members congratulated Shinfield Parish Council on their hard work over a long period of time to produce the Neighbourhood Plan which was the first one that had come before the Executive.

 

It was noted that the production of the Neighbourhood Plan was funded from grants and would not cost council tax payers any money.

 

RESOLVED That:

1)        a 6 week consultation for the draft Neighbourhood Plan be approved; and

 

2)        the Council begin to appoint an examiner to examine the Shinfield Neighbourhood Plan.
