Purpose

The purpose of this report is
to seek the Cabinet Member’s approval for the adoption of
Hesketh Road Conservation Area Appraisal and
Management Plan and extension of the boundary as
proposed.

Decision

Decision(s):
That

 
 

(1)       
the adoption of the Hesketh Road Conservation Area Appraisal and
Management Plan (appendix 1) be approved as a background planning
document where their contents will be a material consideration in
the determination of planning applications; and

 

(2)       
the proposed amendments to Hesketh Road Conservation Area shown on
the plan appended as Annex 2 be approved, under the provisions of
Section 69 of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation
Areas) Act 1990.

 
 

 
Reasons for the Decision(s):
 
That Cabinet Member approves
the documents to fulfil the Councils statutory duties under the
Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas)
Act 1990.
 
Alternative Options
Considered and Rejected: (including any
Risk Implications)
 
The alternative options
are:
 
-That no Conservation Area
Appraisal nor Management Plan are carried out which would not be in
the best interests of preserving and enhancing Hesketh Road
Conservation Area.
 
-That the proposed boundary
extension is not approved which means that the current boundary
will be retained as it is.
