Decision details

Cabinet considered the head of planning’s report on the Longworth Neighbourhood Plan.  The plan had been subject to a referendum on 18 August 2016, when the majority supported it. 

Cabinet noted that the council had a duty to make the neighbourhood plan part of the development plan unless the making of the plan would breach, or would otherwise be incompatible with, any EU obligation or any of the Convention rights (within the meaning of the Human Rights Act 1998).  Officers reported that the neighbourhood plan was compatible with the current EU obligations and recommended that the council ‘make’ the neighbourhood plan part of the council’s development plan. 

RECOMMENDED: to Council to make the Longworth Neighbourhood Plan part of the development plan for Vale of White Horse.
