Proposed Main Modifications Consultation

East Lindsey Schedule of Proposed Main Modifications (2017) Consultation 5th January to 5:30pm 16th February 2018.

East Lindsey District Council's Local Plan (the plan) was submitted to the Secretary of State for independent examination on the 18th April 2017. Planning Inspectors Jeremy Youle BA (HONS) MA MRTPI and Louise Phillips MA MSc MRTPI were appointed to undertake the examination with the public hearing sessions held between the 12th July and the 4th of October 2017.

As part of the examination process a number of proposed Main Modifications have been identified. A Main Modification is an amendment which is considered necessary to make the Plan sound, and is required in order to address concerns raised by either the Inspectors or other representors during the examination process.

The Council has prepared a schedule setting out the proposed Main Modifications it considers necessary in order for the Local Plan to be found sound. This document, along with a document showing proposed changes from the maps in the submission Core Strategy and Sites in the Settlement Proposals DPD, an updated Sustainability Appraisal Report and Habitats Regulations Assessment have now been published for public consultation.

Please note that at this stage representations will only be accepted on the Proposed Main Modifications set out in the Schedule of Proposed Main Modifications to the Pre-Submission Draft Local Plan (2017) and the proposed map changes received within the consultation period. This is not an opportunity to re-state previous representations, as these have already been considered by the Inspector as part of the examination, or to raise new objections to the Pre-Submission Draft Local Plan or to seek further changes to it. For example: seeking the inclusion or omission of a site in the Plan other than those identified in the Proposed Main Modifications.

This consultation runs from the 5th of January to 5:30pm on the 16th of February 2018.
