The Local Plan was adopted on 9th September 2020. 1.2 The Local Plan sets out the development strategy, strategic and development management policies and land designations for the District. It influences how and where the Staffordshire Moorlands will develop in the future. It sets out what the District Council would like to achieve in each of the main towns and the rural areas outside the Peak District National Park. The Local Plan also provides the framework for future detailed guidance to supplement the policies. 1.3 The Local Plan covers only that part of the District for which the Council has responsibility as a local planning authority. It therefore excludes the Peak District National Park which is covered by a separate policy framework prepared by the Peak District National Park Authority. This Local Plan comprises of the following: A Portrait of Staffordshire Moorlands - a description of the District The Challenges - a summary of the key challenges facing the District The Vision – detailing what the Staffordshire Moorlands will be like in 2033 Aims and Objectives – stating what the Local Plan is proposing to achieve A Spatial Strategy and Strategic Policies – setting out the over-arching strategy and policies for the District Development Management Policies – setting out specific measures to manage development Site Specific Policies - specific policy to guide the development of strategic sites and others requiring bespoke policy Implementation and Monitoring - a framework for how the plan will be implemented and monitored Maps - for Leek, Biddulph, Cheadle and the Rural Areas which identify proposed sites and boundaries 6 September 2020 Staffordshire Moorlands Local Plan - Adopted The Core Strategy 1.4 The Staffordshire Moorlands Core Strategy was adopted in March 2014. The Core Strategy identified a housing requirement of 300 homes per year and an employment land requirement of at least 24ha over the period 2011 to 2026. The Core Strategy also established the appropriate distribution of development across the District with the emphasis being on development in the market towns of Leek, Biddulph and Cheadle with a more modest scale of development in the villages that lie within the Rural Area. However, the Planning Inspector who considered the Core Strategy determined that an early and comprehensive review of the Core Strategy for the period 2016 – 2031 would be required to take account of longer term development requirements. The review of the Core Strategy would also roll it forward into a single local plan combined with site allocations. 1.5 This Local Plan is the review of the Core Strategy and its policies, and supersedes the Core Strategy. Statutory Period for Representations on the Submission Version Local Plan 1.6 This is a statutory stage in the Local Plan process where the Council publishes its final draft of the Local Plan, the 'Submission Version' and invites comments on the soundness and legal compliance of its content during a 6 week period. This took place between 27th February and 11th April 2018. All representations received at this stage were 'submitted' to the Secretary of State alongside the Submission Version Local Plan. Those objectors from the statutory period for representations had the right to be heard at an examination in public either in writing (written representations) or verbally at a hearing session conducted by an independent inspector appointed by the Secretary of State. The examination hearings took place in October 2018 and February 2020. 1.7 This statutory period for representations is the final stage of consultation following: Site Options consultation held between July and September 2015. Over 5500 responses were received regarding site and boundary options for housing, employment, mixed-use, open space, town centres, retail frontages, settlement boundaries and infill. Views were also sought on policy matters and potential changes to the Statement of Community Involvement (SCI). An updated SCI was adopted by the Council on 13th April 2016. Preferred Options Sites and Boundaries consultation held between April and June 2016. Over 8600 responses were received. Analysis of the consultation responses has informed the content of this consultation and updates to the evidence base. Preferred Options consultation held between July and September 2017. Over 2600 responses were received. Analysis of the consultation responses has informed the content of the Submission Version document and updates to the evidence base. Evidence Base 1.8 The Council needs to ensure that the Local Plan is based on adequate, up-to-date and relevant evidence about the economic, social and environmental characteristics and prospects of the area. The Council has been in the process of updating and commissioning additional evidence to support the Local Plan as follows: Strategic Housing Market Assessment (SHMA) (2014) and Update (2017) September 2020 7 Staffordshire Moorlands Local Plan - Adopted Employment Land Study (2014) and Update (2017) Sustainability Appraisal Report (Submission version Local Plan) (2018) Updated Gypsy and Traveller Needs Assessment

Welcome and Introductions: CPML Welcomed everyone to the meeting 2. Apologies: Cllr Keith Flunder (Checkley PC). 3. Masterplan Blythe Vale - DW has received communication from High Peak Planning department regarding S106 funding for Open Space Playing fields. DW has asked Sally Curley and Ben Hayward to keep both Forsbrook and Draycott Clerks informed regarding any progress with the S106 and to involve all the Parishes in a Consultation when High Peak notify us that funds have been received. DP explained that the S106 information is on the Planning portal. A discussion was had about playing fields after the developments are complete. A maintenance plan should be built into the S106 plan so that the Parish Councils do not have to pick up the bill for ongoing maintenance. DW asked to write to High Peak to gain more clarification on the process. 4. Masterplan Letter SMO drafted a letter to be sent to The Planning Department requesting a copy of the Masterplan. It was agreed that the Master Copy would be passed to the Draycott and then to Forsbrook Parishes for the letter to be approved and signed at the next Council meetings in November.
