Council gave consideration to the Earl Shilton & Barwell Area Action Plan. It was reported that the Inspector had recommended modifications which had been incorporated. During discussion, the following points were raised:

 

·         The need to avoid over-provision of affordable flats in Earl Shilton

·         the importance of bringing the employment land into use early in the Barwell SUE development

·         concern regarding Mill Lane in Earl Shilton becoming a ‘rat run’ and the need to avoid heavy lorries using that road

·         the position regarding town centre regeneration for Earl Shilton

·         the viability claim from developers of Barwell SUE regarding the affordable housing provision.

 

In response to comments made, the Leader explained that planning permission for Barwell SUE had not been issued, as he was not yet satisfied that the commitments would be delivered and permission would not be issued until an agreement that was the best possible for the area had been reached.
