Decision details

Response to Local Development Guide Consultation Draft 2024

Decision Maker: Cabinet Member Planning and Building Control

Decision status: Recommendations Approved

Is Key decision?: No

Is subject to call in?: No

Purpose:

To agree the response to Gloucestershire County Council’s consultation on the Local Development Guide.

                                       

Reasons for the decision:

To provide a response from Cheltenham Borough Council, Gloucester City Council and Tewkesbury Borough Council to the Local Development Guide, which provides information about the types of infrastructure that may be necessary to mitigate the impacts of development.

Alternative options considered:

1.     Do not respond.  However, this would mean that the opportunity to influence the consultation would be missed.

2.    Respond on an individual authority basis.  However, this would diminish the ability of the authority to emphasise how the proposed changes would potentially impact the three councils.

Other reasons / organisations consulted

Internal, including across the planning service.  Included consultation with the Cabinet member for Planning and Building Control.  Tewkesbury Borough Council and Gloucester City Council have also sought input across their organisations as they deemed appropriate.
