The Council can decide not to
follow the recommendations of the Examiner, but it must set out its reasons for
doing so.
The Council has agreed to accept all of the
Examiner’s recommendations made within her report but with the exception of two
modifications to Policy H3. These modifications are with the agreement of the
Joint Councils Committee (JCC).
Policy H3 has been re-titled ‘Affordable Housing
Exceptions Sites’ rather than ‘Rural Exceptions Sites and Entry Level Exception
sites’.
a) The Bridport Area Neighbourhood Plan 2020 - 2036 as modified can proceed to referendum
b) A recommendation to 'make' the Bridport Area Neighbourhood Plan 2020 - 2036 be made to a Cabinet meeting after the referendum if the result of the referendum is in support of making the plan and there are no other issues identified that would go against such a decision.
