Please note that this is a summary report only. The Councils are not endorsing the representations that are contained in the report or any ‘alternative sites’ that are referred to in to the representations; they only represent the views of the individuals or organisations who submitted them. The Representation Report is for viewing only and not for comment. 1.3 Responses to the Deposit consultation included a number that related to site allocations or development boundaries shown in the Deposit Plan. These ‘Alternative Site’ representations were submitted by individuals or organisations who consider that the relevant maps should be amended to: include new allocations, remove existing allocations from the Plan or alter them in some way, change the development boundary, or change the make-up of existing clusters. Therefore the Representations Report is divided into two parts: Representations on the Written Statement – the representations relating to PART the Strategy and the wording of the various Policies and Paragraphs 1 contained in the Deposit Plan. This section follows the same order as the Deposit Plan. Site Specific Representations – the representations seeking changes to the allocations, development boundaries and clusters in the Deposit Plan. This PART section follows the same order as the schedule of settlements found in 2 appendix 4 of the Deposit Plan. Settlement maps have been created which show the location of the ‘Alternative Sites’. 1.4 If, having read the summary of individual representations, you wish to see the complete representation you can do so by viewing a library containing a hard copy of all representations received located in the Joint Planning Policy Unit (JPPU) Office. Alternatively a hard copy or an electronic copy of full individual representations can be requested in writing by contacting the JPPU: Post: Email: Joint Planning Policy Unit [email protected] Bangor City Council Offices, Ffordd Gwynedd, Bangor, LL57 1DT 2.0 What Happens Next? 2.1 All the representations received about the Deposit Plan and the evidence submitted in support will be analysed carefully by the JPPU. When the analysis work has been completed a report which will suggest which steps need to be taken will be prepared. This report will be submitted to the Joint Planning Policy Committee in January 2016 in order for it to make a decision on how to respond to the representations. 2 2.2 Once the Joint Planning Policy Committee has agreed on how to respond to the representations, the Deposit Plan, background and topic papers, a consultation report (which will set out a summary of each individual representation and the Councils’ response), and all the representations received will be submitted to the Welsh Government and Planning Inspectorate for independent examination in February 2016. A Planning Inspector will be appointed to assess all duly made representations and the evidence submitted in support of the representations and any changes proposed by the Councils to decide whether the plan is sound. If the Councils have recommended amendments they will be shown in an Appendix to the Deposit Plan, which will be part of the documents pack submitted to the Planning Inspectorate. 2.3 A Public Examination will follow and will include a series of Hearings, which will give the Inspector an opportunity to discuss the main issues with individuals who have made representations about the Deposit Plan. The Inspector could recommend amendments to policy, paragraphs or sites based on the evidence received in support of objections. The Council will be required to consult on any amendments that arise from the Examination before the Inspector completes the binding report. 3.0 Further Information 3.1 For more information in regard to any aspect of the preparation of the Joint Local Development Plan or if you wish to be placed on the JLDP’s consultation database, please contact the JPPU via email [email protected] or by telephone 01286 685003/01766 771000. 3 Section 1: The Executive Summary Rep Name Section Type Summary of Representation / Change(s) to Plan ID The entire plan is based on government orders rather than local
