  • East Ayrshire Council’S Planning and Economic Development Service Is Pleased to Submit Its Eight Planning Performance Framework Which Covers the 2018/19 Period
    1 Planning Performance Framework Annual Report 2018-2019 Planning and Economic Development Service The Opera House, 8 John Finnie Street, 1 Kilmarnock, KA1 1DD 2 Foreword by Councillor Jim Roberts Chair of the Planning Committee As with my introduction last year to our PPF, I remain pleased to report clear continuing performance improvement across a range of markers for Development Management, in particular in relation to decision-making timescales and the reduction in legacy cases. Officers in Development Management are also making increased use of Processing Agreements particularly with Local Developments to work in collaboration with Developers. Our team retain their continued ambition to continually improve performance across all markers. The last year has been an exciting and busy one for our Development Planning and Regeneration Section. Good progress has been made with the Minerals Local Development Plan; the Examination has now been completed and we are anticipating adopting the Plan in October 2019. Following on from successful Kilmarnock, Cumnock and Galston Conservation Area Regeneration Schemes, earlier this year we received the great news that a Mauchline CARS will be going ahead. This will help to really enhance and make the most of the town’s historic environment and encourage new economic activity. Placemaking continues to be a focus of our work and, working in partnership with our communities, 2 further placemaking plans for Ochiltree and Catrine have been adopted as supplementary guidance. The team is also busy working on the development phase of an HLF funded Landscape Partnership for the Coalfield Communities and is leading on the preparation of the business case for the National Energy Research Demonstrator in Cumnock, an innovative and exciting project within the Ayrshire Growth Deal.
