Issue - meetings

Councillor Sutton advised that he had attended the 2^nd of the Two Waters Planning Framework workshops and had been extremely impressed by the process that is going on. He advised that the area was open to regeneration and from the meetings he has attended is confident that any regeneration works would be done sympathetically and would go hand in glove with the open spaces that exist within Boxmoor and the Two Waters area. He went on to advise that the report covers a fairly large area but that it is worth looking at that as a whole. He advised that the purpose of the report was to agree the planning framework.

James Doe added that Two Waters is an up and coming area for regeneration and that it was important to have something fit for purpose to deal with those proposals and suggested that the framework now be sent out for consultation and to then report back once the views of the public have been secured.

Councillor Williams referred to Recommendation 2 and the final framework being brought back to Cabinet and Council and enquired as to whether there was a timescale for that.

James Doe advised that he anticipates it would come back to Cabinet in the autumn.

The committee agreed the recommendations.
