To consider the Elmdon Village Design Statement.

RESOLVED to adopt the Elmdon Village Design Statement as Council

Approved Guidance for the purposes of Development Management and

Planning Policy.

The Chair presented the report seeking approval for the Elmdon Village Design Statement as submitted by Elmdon Parish Council. An authorised Village Design Statement (VDS) was an advisory document used by planners, developers and local people through the planning process. If a VDS met the requirements of a local authority, it could be used as a material consideration in the determination of planning applications.

The Chair concurred with Councillor Barker that the author be commended for the quality of the report.
