Decision details

This report will set out the outcome of consultation on the draft Interface Land Development Framework, regarding the site which straddles the boundary of Chatham Historic Dockyard and Chatham Maritime.

This report will be initially considered at Regeneration, Community and Culture Overview and Scrutiny Committee on 29 September 2010.  

Discussion:

The Assistant Director for Development, Economy and Transport gave a presentation detailing the area of land covered by this Supplementary Planning Document and the key issues raised during the consultation period.

The committee asked why covered slip number 7 was not part of the consideration for this document and officers advised that it was by far the largest covered slip and because of its size it had a viable future whereas the other covered slipways had been problematic to find a suitable use for. Officers emphasised that they had developed a very good working relationship with English Heritage which supported the aims of this planning document.

Decision:

The committee agreed to endorse the Interface Land Development Framework and recommended it to Cabinet for adoption as a Supplementary Planning Document.
