Issue - meetings

The Board considered a report on The Local Plan for Halton, which included the adopted Delivery and Allocations Local Plan (2022) and the Joint Waste Plan (2013). The statutory Local Development Plan is the set of Local Plans (also known as Development Plan Documents (DPDs) that together form the statutory basis for determining whether or not planning permission should be granted.

The Board received the Delivery and Allocations Local Plan (DALP) Annual Monitoring Report (AMR) for the period 1 April 2023 to 31 March 2024.

The Board received the Draft Authority Monitoring Reports (AMR) from the Executive Director - Environment and Regeneration, which provided a progress update on the Halton Delivery and Allocations Local Plan (DALP) policies for the period 1 April 2023 to 31 March 2024.

Local planning authorities were required to publish information, at least annually, that showed progress with local plan preparation.  They were also required to report any activity relating to the duty to co-operate, provide any information which may have been collected relating to indicators in the plan and highlight any polices which had not been implemented. 

RESOLVED: That the Board endorse the draft AMR’s so that the documents can be made publicly available and published on the Council’s website.
