Issue - meetings

It was moved by Councillor Brough, seconded by Councillor Morris that:

Identification of Brownfield Sites for Housing Development

That this Council acknowledges the current and high number of applications for housing within the Borough of Sefton and undertakes to reduce waiting times for applicants by identifying and promoting ‘brownfield’ sites for housing development. The use of these sites would increase the number of dwellings available for occupation and reduce waiting times for applicants.

Following a debate on the Motion the Chief Legal and Democratic Officer officiated a vote and the Mayor declared that the Motion was lost by 42 votes to 19.
