Decision details

Draft Development Brief for three sites to the north east of Arnold

Reference: D744

Decision Maker: Portfolio Holder for Sustainable Growth and Economy

Decision status: Recommendations Approved

Is Key decision?: No

Is subject to call in?: No

Purpose:

The purpose of the report is that the Portfolio Holder agrees to the publishing of the draft development brief for three sites to the north east of Arnold (at Brookfields Garden Centre, Howbeck Road and Killisick Lane) as a Supplementary Planning Document for consultation between Friday 18th August and Friday 28th September 2018.

Decision:

THAT the Portfolio Holder agrees to the publishing of the draft development brief for the site to the North East of Arnold as a Supplementary Planning Document for consultation between Friday 18th August and Friday 28th September 2018.

Reasons for the decision:

To ensure that appropriate issues relating to the development of the Brookfields Garden Centre site, Howbeck Road/Mapperley Plains site and the Killisick Lane site are considered and delivered comprehensively.

Alternative options considered:

One alternative option is not to undertake the work. Whilst there is no requirement in national planning policy for a development brief to be prepared, they are useful documents for expanding on the relevant policy in the development plan (in this case the Local Planning Document). In particular, given the need for a primary school to support the development of the three sites, the document is helpful in providing clarity as to where this should be located. Also the development brief will help to ensure that other elements of the development such as drainage and open space are considered and delivered comprehensively.
