Minutes:
A report was submitted requesting the Committee to Consider the decision of Cabinet made at its meeting on 12th November 2014 in relation to the Newcastle under Lyme and Stoke on Trent Joint Local Plan call for sites.
At the meeting of the Cabinet on 12 November 2014 consideration was given to a report seeking approval for the nomination and inclusion of a number of Borough Council owned sites in the information gathering exercise to identify sites with the potential to satisfy demand for housing, employment and other needs.
The decision had been called in by Cllr Holland, Cllr Loades, Cllr Sweeney, Cllr Jones, Cllr Huckfield and Cllr Northcott.
The Committee considered the reasons put forward for the Call In which included:
· Public adverse reaction;
· The fact that all Council owned sites had not been brought into the public domain to open disposal in any of the proposed tranches or for the local plan proposals.
The Committee considered the arguments put forward by the lead call in member and the responses from the Portfolio Holder for Planning and Assets.
Resolved:
That the decision of Cabinet made on 12th November 2014 in relation to the Local Plan Call for Sites be upheld and take immediate effect.
Meeting: 12/11/2014 - Cabinet (Item 10)

Cllr Williams stated that there was currently not a master plan and that the report to Cabinet only recommended that that officers be authorised to proceed in consultation with the relevant portfolio holder, to agree the principles of a brief with appropriate land owners.
Cllr Kearon requested confirmation that there were currently no brownfields sites available in the Borough. The Executive Director responded that there were none available for development at the moment and highlighted the current situation relating to the main brownfield sites in the Borough which were all already earmarked for future development in some way.

The Executive Director stated a brownfield first policy was hoped to be included in the Joint Local Plan.
