It was resolved to pass a resolution in accordance with Public Bodies (Admission to Meetings) Act 1960 s.1 to  exclude the public and press for discussion of confidential matters relating to the Stafford Borough Council Local Plan draft, for reasons of commercial sensitivity.

Feedback from review Local Plan preferred options:

Members undertook a detailed review of the Local Plan Preferred Options in order to share feedback with Stafford Borough Council regarding the suitability of the included development proposals, should Meecebrook not form part of the final Local Plan and there is a requirement for Eccleshall to accommodate further housing. The key considerations were that any proposal would need to be sustainable and achievable – which included consideration of factors such as opportunities for improved infrastructure (highways and services), those least likely to add to flooding issues and that overall would be the least disruptive. With reference to the confidential document summarising the site options, it was resolved that options B and G best meet this criteria. None of the other options were suitable. It was also noted that Slindon and Croxton remain areas where limited growth is feasible.

It was resolved for the Clerk to arrange a meeting with Borough Council representatives to feed back this information. Cllrs. Delanchy, Langford, Gosling, Hill and Wilkins volunteered to attend, and Cllr. Reid will be involved in a Borough Councillor capacity.

 22/24).  Correspondence:-

There was no correspondence to receive.

 23/24).  Date and venue for next meeting:
