Issue - meetings

The Strategic Planning Manager provided the advisory group with a presentation, (available here) which had previously been circulated to members. The presentation advised that the city council had appointed Design South East to facilitate several design workshops which were attended by local people, local organisations, councillors, consultants and developers during October and November 2021. The presentation displayed the outputs from these three workshops. 

Members made comments and asked several questions concerning the presentation which included the following:

• The importance of integrating and promoting good design within our policies with particular reference made to Village Design Statements (VDS)
• The importance of encouraging parish councils to adopt the design codes

These questions were responded to by officers and the Chairperson accordingly.

RESOLVED:  

1.    That the presentation and update be noted

2.    That officers consider the points made by members
