The following Motions have been submitted under Council Procedure Rule No 10 for this meeting. 

 

(a)      Motion proposed by Cllr Ross Shipman and seconded by Cllr David Hancock

 

          “Council notes with some concern the complaints received regarding the inconsistencies in the approval of planning application 18/00056/FL – Erection of 193 dwellings and associated infrastructure (Major Development) (Departure from Development Plan) (Further Amended Plans)(Amended Title) Land to the North and West of the Poplars, Ankerbold Road, Old Tupton. 

 

          Council also notes the concerns raised by the Liberal Democrats regarding the proposed financial arrangements to fund the proposed development by loaning money to the Northwood Group (a private company with no trading history) to purchase and develop Council owned land; with that same land acting as security. 

 

          The Council believes that such a decision offers no legitimate protection to the council tax payers of North East Derbyshire and is not a commercially sound proposition.

 

          Council therefore resolves to withdraw the proposed sale of the greenfield land to the North and West of the Poplars, Ankerbold Road, Old Tupton and further resolves to undertake an independent investigation into the inconsistencies within the planning decision”.

 

(b)      Motion proposed by Cllr David Hancock and seconded by Cllr Pamela Windley

 

          “Council notes that residents in all parts of the District experience daily problems over the lack of residential parking; particularly where private driveways are difficult or impossible to site. 

 

          Council resolves to undertake a strategic review of residential parking problems around the District, prioritising areas where concerns have been raised by residents, and report on practical solutions – such as allocation of parking spaces and development of unused Council owned land to provide off road parking”. 

 

(c)      Motion proposed by Cllr Pamela Windley and seconded by Cllr Ross Shipman

 

          “North East Derbyshire District Council notes:- 

 

(i)     That Members of the public have the right to be able to scrutinise the business of the Council and this should be made as easy as possible. 

 

(ii)    That all Members are elected to represent the electorate and should remain transparent and accountable to them at all times. 

 

(iii)    The United Kingdom has a population of 64.1 million (2013) and 89% of this population are active internet users.  38 million people actively use social media and a further 50% of the total population actively use their mobile telephones to access their social media (source: www.thinkdigitalfirst.com)

 

(iv)   Since January 2014, there has been a 4% growth in active internet users, 6% growth in social media users and 7% growth in mobile users accessing social media (www.thinkdigitalfirst.com)

 

North East Derbyshire Council resolves that all public meetings and sub-committees (excluding those items held in exemption) are live streamed through all supported media outlets that it currently manages, as well as any future  ...  view the full agenda text for item 17.

Minutes:

In accordance with Council Procedure Rule No 10 to consider Motions on notice from Members.  Motions must be received in writing or by email to the Monitoring Officer by 12 noon seven clear working days before the meeting. 

 

The following Motions had been submitted:-

 

(a)             Motion proposed by Councillor R Shipman and seconded by Councillor D Hancock

 

“Council notes with some concern the complaints received regarding the inconsistencies in the approval of planning application 18/00056/FL - Erection of 193 dwellings and associated infrastructure (Major Development) (Departure From Development Plan) (Further Amended Plans)(Amended Title) Land To The North And West Of The Poplars Ankerbold Road Old Tupton

 

Council also notes the concerns raised by the Liberal Democrats regarding the proposed financial arrangements to fund the proposed development by loaning money to the Northwood Group (a private company with no trading history) to purchase and develop Council owned land; with that same land acting as security.

 

The council believes that such a decision offers no legitimate protection to the council tax payers of North East Derbyshire and is not a commercially sound proposition.

 

Council therefore resolves to withdraw the proposed sale of the greenfield land to the North and West of the Poplars, Ankerbold Road, Old Tupton and further resolves to undertake an independent investigation into the inconsistencies within the planning decision.”

 

Councillor R Shipman moved his Motion, duly seconded by Councillor  D Hancock, who took the opportunity to express his congratulations to those newly appointed to positions on the Council.

 

Councillor M E Thacker MBE welcomed the Motion put before the meeting, and conveyed the Conservatives’ agreement to the content therein.  In offering amendments to the Motion (as set out below), he pledged to commence a review of the planning decision, but without understanding the implications of withdrawal of the sale of the land, it would be remiss to agree for this to happen prior to the investigation.

 

AMENDMENT -

 

“Council notes OBJECTIONS received regarding the ALLEDGED inconsistencies in the approval of planning application 18/00056/FL - Erection of 193 dwellings and associated infrastructure (Major Development) (Departure From Development Plan) (Further Amended Plans)(Amended Title) Land To The North And West Of The Poplars Ankerbold Road Old Tupton

 

Council also notes the concerns raised by the Liberal Democrats regarding the proposed financial arrangements to fund the proposed development by loaning money to the Northwood Group (a private company with no trading history) to purchase and develop Council owned land; with that same land acting as security.

 

THE LIBERAL DEMOCRATS believe that such a decision offers no legitimate protection to the council tax payers of North East Derbyshire and is not a commercially sound proposition.

 

Council therefore resolves to REVIEW the proposed sale of the greenfield land to the North and West of the Poplars, Ankerbold Road, Old Tupton and further resolves to undertake an independent investigation into the inconsistencies within the planning decision.”

 

Councillor N Barker spoke on behalf of the Labour Group to give assurance that due diligence was given  ...  view the full minutes text for item 17.
