Issue - meetings

The Shadow Executive considered a report which was listed as item 10 on the agenda for the Executive meeting on 11 July, at page 87.  The report presented a revised timetable for preparation of the York Central Area Action Plan (AAP) and sought approval to appoint consultants to produce an Issues and Options document and carry out public consultation relating to this.

Having discussed the issues set out in the report and questioned officers present at the meeting, the following comments were agreed:

The Shadow Executive:

·  Agreed to welcome the fact that the Executive have come round to the Shadow Executive’s previously expressed views on the need for an early Area Action Plan to set the framework for development and regret the delay in getting to this point.

·  Welcome the additional Yorkshire Forward money.

·  Believe that there is a need to understand the impact of the British Sugar announcement for the York Central site development.

RESOLVED:(i) That the Executive be asked to take the above comments into account when considering this item.

                        (ii)        That the item not be called in.
