CBC Executive 5 February

Flitt Leys - From the minutes of CBC executive 5 February. I'm still waiting to find out what is different to the last meeting on 17 January. Why should members change their mind (other than a sudden attack of common sense)?


E/12/131    Land Rear of Central Garage, Cranfield Development Brief 

Prior to consideration of the report, and in accordance with the Council’s
Scheme of Public Participation, the Executive received statements from Mr
Baker on behalf of Cranfield Parish Council and Mr Saint raising concerns
about the proposed access through Flitt Leys Close, especially if proposals for
a new lower school were approved as it was anticipated, that this would cause
considerable congestion for local residents.

The Executive considered a report from the Executive Member for Sustainable
Communities – Strategic Planning and Economic Development that set out the
development brief for land rear of Central Garage, Cranfield.  The Executive
Member responded to questions from ward Members with regard to the
concerns about the access arrangements and the proposed development of a
new lower school.

The Deputy Leader and Executive Member for Corporate Resources moved a
revised recommendation, which was duly seconded:-

“that the Land Rear of Central Garage, Cranfield Development Brief be
reconsidered by the Sustainable Communities Overview and Scrutiny
Committee before being resubmitted to the Executive.”


Reason for decision:  To allow the Sustainable Communities Overview and
Scrutiny Committee to consider the concerns regarding the access
arrangements, particularly bearing in mind the possibility of a new lower school.

RESOLVED

that the Land Rear of Central Garage, Cranfield Development Brief be
reconsidered by the Sustainable Communities Overview and Scrutiny
Committee before being resubmitted to the Executive on 19 March 2013.
