Decision Maker: Cabinet Member for PIanning and Licensing
Decision status: Approved
Is Key decision?: Yes
Is subject to call in?: Yes
Purpose:
Adoption of the Local Plan Partial Update
(LPPU) on 19th January 2023 means that Placemaking Plan Policy H2
is now superseded by LPPU Policy H2. The Houses in Multiple
Occupation Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) already states
that once the LPPU is adopted it will supplement LPPU policy H2.
However, minor editorial changes are needed to the Houses in
Multiple Occupation SPD to remove references to the superseded
Placemaking Plan policy.
Decision:
(1) To adopt the updated Houses in Multiple Occupation (HMO) Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) as set out in Appendix A of the report.
(2) To agree that the Head of Planning, in consultation with the Cabinet Member for Planning and Licensing, has delegated authority to make any further editorial amendments to the document prior to publishing the updated adopted SPD.
Reasons for the decision:
This single member decision relates to the minor editorial amendments required to ensure that it is clear the HMO SPD supplements policy H2 in the adopted LPPU and removes all reference to superseded Placemaking Plan policy H2.
Alternative options considered:
No other options have been considered in updating the text within the HMO SPD.
