Reference: D760
Decision Maker: Portfolio Holder for Sustainable Growth and Economy
Decision status: Recommendations Approved
Is Key decision?: No
Is subject to call in?: No
The purpose of this report is to make Gedling
Borough Council’s views known to the County Council on the
new Minerals Local Plan.
Recommendation
It is recommended that the Portfolio Holder agrees that the
comments set out in italics in paragraphs 10, 18 and 20 are sent to
the County Council in response to their consultation on the draft
Minerals Local Plan.
To ensure that Gedling Borough responds to the
consultation on the Draft Minerals Local Plan by the deadline of
28th September 2018.
Alternative options include:
a) Not making any comments on the new Minerals Local Plan in which
case Gedling Borough Council’s views would not be made known
to the County Council; or
b) Send comments setting out objections to the proposals for
extensions to the existing quarries. However, in both cases,
Bestwood 2 and Dorket Head there is a need to identify future
resources and very limited options to secure this resource. The
extension of existing sites as opposed to identifying new sites is
assessed as being the better option by the County Council.
