The Neighbourhood Plan are to continue to schedule meetings with the aim of updating the current Neighbourhood Plan and to write and introduce a Design Code.
97.23 To consider the Consultation on potential mineral sites.
A 58-page consultation has previously been sent out, looking for sites across Lincolnshire. Three sites have been suggested at Baston, Thurlby and West Deeping. This does not directly involve Deeping St James; however, Deeping St James will be affected by these sites should they get the go ahead and the question of supporting these neighbouring communities was discussed. Objections have been raised by the three villages with concerns about the huge number of vehicle movements onto the A15. Cllrs discussed the potential for other sites that would not have such an impact on the local residents and facilities such as North Lincolnshire.
This topic was RECOMMENDED to Full Council to discuss, with information to be sent to Councillors to be prepared.
98.23 To consider the Appeal for S22/2074 150 Eastgate, Deeping St James, PE6 8RD.
The Planning Inspectorate have advised that as this is a householder appeal, there are no further opportunities for comments although previous representations will be used. Deeping St James Parish Council can only withdraw the previous representations.
It was considered a good idea in future, if Deeping St James felt the need to object to a planning application, to be as detailed as possible, so that if an appeal was made and the Parish Council could not add further comments, then a thorough consultation should have already been made and we would know that no more could be done.
