Issue - meetings

At this point in the meeting, members of the public who have registered their wish to speak, regarding an item on the agenda or an issue within the remit of the Working Group, may do so.  The deadline for registering is 10 am on Friday 28 July 2006.

It was reported that there had been one registration to speak under the Council’s Public Participation Scheme.

Janet O’Neill addressed the meeting regarding the Local Development Framework Core Strategy Issues and Options document.  She outlined concerns that the city strategy, set out in chapter 4 of this document, was not strong enough and requested that officers review and clarify this section as part of their work following the consultation process.

It was confirmed that these comments had also been submitted in writing during the consultation process and officers were asked to circulate them to Members for information.

Officers confirmed that the results of the consultation exercise would be reported to Members in the autumn and that the issues raised by the speaker could be considered at that point.
