    07/1 MINUTES OF A MEETING OF THE PARISH COUNCIL OF LONGDON HELD IN THE W. I. HALL, LONGDON, ON TUESDAY, JANUARY 9TH, 2007 Present: Cllr. R. C. Hemmingsley (Vice-Chairman, who, in the absence of the Chairman, chaired the meeting); Cllr. N. J. Bird; Cllr. B. J. Butler; Cllr. A. J. Juxon; Cllr. Mrs. M. G. Nichols; and Cllr. H. M. P. Reynolds. Also present were the Clerk; Cllr. N. J. Roberts, of Lichfield District Council; County Councillor F. W. Lewis, M. B. E.; and Mrs. Jane Russell, Village Correspondent of “The Village Mercury”. 1. APOLOGIES Cllr. The Rev. J. R. Andrews; Cllr. N. Stanfield; Cllr. M. A. W. Parsons; and Cllr. S. K. Welch. 2. PRESENTATION BY CLLR. ROBERTS Before opening the meeting, Cllr. Hemmingsley invited Cllr. Roberts to make a presentation on the West Midlands Regional Spatial Strategy Phase Two Revision. Cllr. Roberts explained that the West Midlands Regional Assembly had just issued a document setting out spatial options for four planning areas – housing, employment, transport and waste. The main emphasis was on housing, for which a series of tables relating to housing distribution had been set out, together with three options – the first reflecting a continuum of previous figures, the second planning for a 25% increase and the third, the Government’s own preferred option, providing for a 50% increase. The adoption of the third of these options would result in an increase in the Lichfield area of 16,000 dwellings, which would be considerably larger than any other adjoining district except East Staffordshire and might even lead to development on the margins of the Green Belt.
