  • Erewash Borough Council (Richard Green)
    Resources Directorate , Planning & Regeneration Town Hall Long Eaton Derbyshire NG10 1HU Switchboard: 0115 907 2244 E Mail: [email protected] Please ask for: Richard Green Direct Tel: 0115 9072244 x3152 Our Ref: EBC Date: 29 April 2014 Dear Sir/Madam, Aligned Core Strategy Proposed Main Modifications Consultation (Nottingham City, Broxtowe and Gedling). The recently adopted Erewash Core Strategy has been produced in broad alignment with the Aligned Core Strategies of Broxtowe Borough, Gedling Borough and Nottingham City Councils, as the Borough forms part of the Nottingham Core Housing Market Area. Erewash Borough Council believe that working together to prepare broadly aligned strategic policies with the other Greater Nottingham Councils (also including Rushcliffe Borough Council) has led to effective and more joined up planning outcomes, whilst making best use of resources by sharing staff and expertise, whilst also providing value for money by sharing the cost of producing much of the common evidence base. This partnership working has also enabled the Council’s to fulfil their statutory Duty to Cooperate. Erewash Borough Council therefore welcomes the opportunity to comment on this consultation and largely supports these proposed modifications. However, Erewash Borough Council would like to point out in relation to Proposed Main Modifications C259a & C264a that it has yet to make a decision on the merits or otherwise of an extension of the tram route into Erewash Borough. Indeed the recently adopted Erewash Core Strategy makes no reference to this matter and it also did not form any part of the Borough Council’s response to the HS2 Ltd Phase 2 line of route consultation (see attachment).
