The Portfolio Holder for Planning and Housing Development presented a report from the Head of Economic Growth seeking approval for the application by Broseley Town Council for the Parish Council area to be considered as an appropriate area for the preparation of a Neighbourhood Plan.

RESOLVED:

i)     That the Broseley Parish area is an appropriate basis for the development of a Neighbourhood Plan and notifies the Town Council accordingly.

ii)    That Broseley Town Council will be able to prepare a Neighbourhood Plan for that area, which will be subject to public consultation, examination and local referendum as set out in Neighbourhood Planning Regulations 2012 as amended.  Assuming any subsequent local referendum is successful, Shropshire Council’s full Council will then be asked to adopt the final version of the Neighbourhood Plan.
