Decision details

The Cabinet considered the report of the Head of Regeneration and Housing which provided details of a decision taken by the Leader of the Council as urgent business in respect of an addition to the Sefton Local Plan in relation to the Government’s reinstatement of the Vacant Building Credit.

Decision Made:

That the report be noted.

Reasons for Decision:

To address issues raised by the Inspector which required changes to be made in order to make the Local Plan sound.

Alternative Options Considered and Rejected:

None. Unless these changes were approved, the Local Plan would be found ‘unsound’ and would not be able to be adopted.
