Decision details

To adopt the Holbeck, South Bank Supplementary Planning Document

Further to Minute No. 160, 9^th March 2016, the Director of City Development submitted a report presenting feedback from the public consultation exercise undertaken on the draft Holbeck, South Bank Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) and which requested approval of the proposed changes arising from this. Specifically, the report recommended the adoption of the re-drafted SPD, which would formally replace the existing Holbeck Urban Village Revised Planning Framework, previously adopted as Supplementary Planning Guidance in 2006.

Members acknowledged and welcomed the proposal to now refer to the area as Holbeck, rather than ‘Holbeck Urban Village’.

RESOLVED –

(a)  That the contents of the submitted report, together with the associated formal consultation statement, be noted;

(b)  That the renaming of the Holbeck Urban Village, South Bank Supplementary Planning Document to ‘Holbeck, South Bank Supplementary Planning Document’ be approved, and that officers commence dialogue with residents and partners in order to consider how best to market and promote this area of the city;

(c)  That the Holbeck, South Bank Supplementary Planning Document be adopted in the form as appended to the submitted report, pursuant to section 23 of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004 (as amended);

(d)  That it be noted that the Chief Planning Officer will publish the Holbeck, South Bank Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) and associated documents in accordance with the Town and Country planning (Local Planning) (England) Regulations 2012 Compulsory Purchase Act 2004 (as amended).

A 6 week formal consultation exercise took place in March/April
