Decision Maker: Planning Policy Sub-Committee
Decision status: Recommmend Forward to Council
Is Key decision?: No
Is subject to call in?: No
The Subcommittee received a report from the Planning Policy Team Leader which sought agreement to the following older sets of Supplementary Planning Documents (SPDs) and Supplementary Planning Guidance (SPG) being revoked by removing them from the Council’s website and deposit points.
· Open Space & Recreation Standards October 2000 SPG
· Parking Standards SPG 2000Telecoms October 2000
· Advertisements September 2003
· Archaeology September 2003
· Telecoms October 2000
Whilst accepting that these documents should be revoked for the reasons outlined in the report, Members also requested that the relevant procedures should be reviewed to ensure that when new planning documents and guidance were adopted by the Council, the old ones could be automatically revoked as that would negate the possibility of any confusion arising by having two sets of guidance relating to the same topic. An officer assurance was given that that point would be taken on board and actioned accordingly.
The Subcommittee
RECOMMEND TO FULL COUNCIL
That the older Supplementary Planning Documents and Supplementary Planning Guidance set out under paragraphs 1.1 and 1.2 of the report be revoked because they are replaced, are out of date and have no material weight.
