Decision:

To determine whether the Hugglescote Neighbourhood Plan should proceed to Referendum

Reasons for the decision:

Officers have considered the recommendations of the Examiner . They are of the view that the Proposed Modifications are appropriate and that the Neighbourhood Plan is considered to contribute to sustainable development within the Neighbourhood Area and would meet the basic conditions as defined in the Localism Act 2011, Schedule 10 and Schedule 4B, 8 (2) of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990, subject to the recommended alterations set out in the Examiner’s report.

Alternative options considered:

The Council has to decide whether to proceed to Referendum within 5 weeks of receipt of the Examiners Report. Due to the timescales it was not possible to take a report to the Local Plan Committee.
The plan has been subject to Examination, and has been found to be acceptable , subject to some modifications, so not proceeding to Referendum was considered to be inappropriate.
