Is subject to call in?: No
Decision:
Agree to make the Breedon on the Hill
Neighbourhood Plan
Reasons for the decision:
In a referendum covering the Breedon on the
Hill Neighbourhood Plan area on 13 March 2025, 87% of those who
voted supported the proposal that the Neighbourhood Plan be used to
help determine planning applications within the parish.
The Breedon on the Hill Neighbourhood Plan meets the Basic
Conditions and its preparation process has been compliant with
legal and procedural requirements. Paragraph 38A(4)(a) of the
Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004 requires the Council to
make the Neighbourhood Plan if more than half of those voting in
the referendum have voted in favour of the Plan being used to help
decide planning applications in the area.
Alternative options considered:
The council has to decide whether to 'make'
the plan following the Referendum on 13 March 2025. Such a decision
has to be made within 8 weeks of the referendum.
