FUNCTIONS OF THE JOINT PLANNING POLICY COMMITTEE PDF 234 KB To submit the
Planning Policy Manager’s report Minutes: Nia Haf Davies gave a presentation
which provided information on the Committee's functions, and other relevant
considerations in order for the Committee to note the content of the report. It
was confirmed that the new agreement was very similar
to the previous agreement in 2011, which included a responsibility to monitor
and review the Plan. New functions were also noted for the Committee,
specifically: ·
To submit the review report and revised
delivery agreement for the Joint Local Development Plan to both Councils for
agreement. ·
To have responsibility for revision of
the Joint Local Development Plan and the submission of the revised Joint Local
Development Plan to both Councils for adoption. ·
Accepting and advising on a draft levy
charge list for public examination and on the Inspector's recommendations
before it is submitted to the Cabinet / Executive Committee for a
decision. The only change in
terms of membership was removing the right to appoint Members as reserves. This
would be consistent with the recent legislative changes imposed in relation to
the membership of Planning Committees, where reserves are now prohibited by
statute. Points raised: ·
One of the Committee Members questioned
the need to maintain the Joint Planning Policy Unit for the next five years. ·
There was a need to consider the
impacts of Brexit, e.g. Holyhead Port and its
connection with Ireland. ·
It was important to maintain the Unit
to review changes, e.g. any delays in the Wylfa Newydd project. Responses ·
The Plan must be monitored annually and
it is statutory to look at the context, change in national policy, a major
employer leaving, etc. All of this influenced how the Plan would respond to a
change in circumstances. Decision: The contents of the report were noted. |

RE-ESTABLISH THE JOINT LOCAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN PANEL PDF 222 KB To submit the
Planning Policy Manager’s report Additional documents: Minutes: Nia Haf Davies gave a presentation which explained that the main purpose of the Panel was to consider and give an opinion on information
that was necessary to steer the development of key planning policy documents
that had been identified in the Joint Planning Policy Committee's terms of
reference. The Panel's Terms of
Reference was included in Appendix 1 of the report. It was noted that it was
very similar to the previous Terms of Reference but that it reflected the work
needed in this next phase, namely to give advice during the key stages in the
process of preparing Supplementary Planning Guidance, the annual monitoring
report, any amendments to the Plan or the community infrastructure levy
fee. Decision: There was a proposer
and a seconder for the recommendation that the committee shall re-establish the
Joint Local Development Plan Panel and that it shall act in accordance with its
terms of reference. The Committee accepted the recommendation. |
