Inspector Proposed Focused Changes
The event is not currently available for consultation.
West Berkshire Council submitted its Core Strategy and accompanying Proposals Maps as part of its Local Development Framework (LDF) to the Secretary of State on 9th July 2010. The Core Strategy is the lead document within the LDF and sets out the Council’s vision, objectives and spatial planning strategy for the District.
The Examination into the Core Strategy commenced on submission of the document and hearings were held by an independent Planning Inspector in November 2010. Following the hearings the Examination was suspended to allow the Council to carry out further work.
In addition to the schedule of Examination proposed changes to the submitted Core Strategy the Council is also consulting on the changes to Policy CS16 (Sustainable Design and Construction) proposed by the Inspector. These changes are subject to a consultation period running for 6 weeks from 4th February until 18th March 2011. More details can be found on the Council's website on the LDF Core Strategy Changes Consultation page.
Comments received on the Focused Changes will be considered alongside the submitted Core Strategy by the Planning Inspector when the Examination resumes in the spring. The Proposed Focused Changes are highlighted in yellow in the document. These are the changes on which we are consulting. More minor changes are shown in the text and will be published separately as a schedule of minor changes.
