Minutes:

The Cabinet Member for Planning introduced the report which set-out some proposed boundary changes, and that following the recent review work, the conservation area should be formally re-designated under Section 69 of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act, 1990.  The Cabinet Member read out a late submission to the consultation, which was in support of the proposed extension of the conservation area.  The Cabinet Member added that there had been a really good response to the consultation.

 

The Conservation & Design Manager said the Milstead Conservation Area was very sound, and was worthy of re-designation with the boundary changes, and he welcomed the consultation responses that had been received.

 

The Cabinet Member for Economy & Property, who was also the Ward Member, thanked officers and the consultant for the report which had been very positively received by local residents, both in and outside the conservation area.  The Cabinet Member said the review had been requested via an Area Committee and she noted that the conservation area had not been reviewed since its designation in 1973.

 

The Cabinet Member for Planning proposed the recommendations which were seconded by the Cabinet Member for Environment.

 

Resolved:

 

(1)      That the responses received from the public consultation exercise (summarised in the response table at Appendix I) be noted.

(2)      That the content of the conservation area character appraisal and associated management strategy document for the Milstead Conservation Area, as amended in response to the public consultation (set-out in Appendix II) be noted.

(3)      That in light of (1) and (2) above, it be agreed that Milstead Conservation Area is of special architectural or historic interest, the character or appearance of which it is desirable to preserve or enhance, and that as such, that it should be re-designated as a conservation area in accordance with section 69 of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act, 1990.

(4)      That in light of (1) and (2) above, it be agreed that the boundary to the conservation area be re-drawn as proposed in the amended character appraisal and management plan document, and that this document for the Milstead Conservation Area be formally adopted for development management purposes.
