Initial Consultation document

1. Introduction

Representation ID: 92369

Received: 10/08/2018

Respondent: Peterborough City Council

Representation Summary:

Thank you for consulting Peterborough City Council on your Minerals and Waste Local Plan Initial Consultation. We have no specific comments to make at this stage relating to the overall content of the draft Plan.

We would however draw attention to the revised National Planning Policy Framework and the implications for Plan Making, such as requiring Plans to clearly state which policies are 'strategic' and which are 'local'. This may require a re-ordering of policies for the Preferred Options draft Plan, such that all strategic policies are grouped in one section, and all local policies grouped in a subsequent section.

The council will continue to cooperate with Norfolk through our Duty to Cooperate, including in fora such as the East of England Aggregate Working Party and the East of England Waste Technical Advisory Board. Please keep the council informed of all future stages of Plan preparation.
