To consider a report of Cabinet Member for Resources seeking amendments to the Minerals and Waste Plan.
The Minerals and Waste Plan will form part of the development plan for the city. Planning applications for minerals and waste development will be judged against the plan. The ‘submission’ plan is being tested at a public examination by an independent inspector. During the course of this examination the inspector has asked the Councils to consider further changes. As a result approval is required for these further changes to the plan. These changes will then be the subject of public consultation. The main changes relevant to Southampton are expected to relate to policies relating to new wharves, Dibden Bay, and the National Planning Policy Framework. The plan is being prepared jointly with Hampshire County Council, Portsmouth City Council and the national park authorities for the New Forest and South Downs.
