The Planning Portfolio Holder considered a report seeking his agreement that the draft Foxton Conservation Area Appraisal, and revised Conservation Area boundary, be published for formal consultation.

Councillor Deborah Roberts (local Member) fully supported the proposal.

The Portfolio Holder said that there was clear justification for a review at this stage, and that it was entirely logical to extend the existing Conservation Area so as to cover those buildings listed since the previous designation was made in 1972. He thanked the Consultancy Unit Team Leader for his effort in developing the proposal so far, and asked that his appreciation be conveyed to those officers also concerned.
