Reasons for recommendations i. Officers have considered the results of public consultation and have made appropriate amendments to the VDS documents. This completes the requirements of the Regulations to enable the Council to Adopt the VDS documents. ii. Executive may approve the final content of the VDS (text and images) to enable Officers to typeset the documents ready for Policy Review Committee to consider as finished documents. iii. To enable the VDS documents to complete the Council’s process of adoption though its formal meetings. 1. Introduction and background 1.1 Following the successful Adoption of nine Village Design Statements in 2009, work began on a further round of production. The villages under consideration are: Appleton Roebuck, Barlow, Bilbrough, Brotherton, Byram, Carlton, Church Fenton, Hensall, Monk Fryston, Newton Kyme, North Duffield, Riccall, Stutton, Ulleskelf, and Womersley. Copies of the draft VDS are available upon request. 1.2 The VDS documents have been prepared in partnership between local people and Officers from Selby District Council to present architectural and design guidance to anyone proposing new development within the villages. The advice given is intended to ensure that new development respects the unique aesthetic attributes of the villages in the District and to promote high quality design, but does not require new development to slavishly copy old designs. 1.3 A report approving the content of the draft VDS and authorising the consultation process to take place after election purdah was approved at Policy & Resources Committee on 24 March 2011. 1.4 This round of Village Design Statements is the last in the current programme while Access Selby concentrates on the core LDF documents. In the uncertainty surrounding the Localism Bill and potential Neighbourhood Plans, VDS may return, perhaps in an alternative format. 2. The Report 2.1 Consultation took place between 1 August and 12 September 2011 (six weeks). A schedule of comments received during this time is included in the Consultation Statement (Appendix 1), together with the Council’s response to those issues raised. Where appropriate, changes have been made to the VDS documents themselves. Those revised documents are available upon request from Officers on PC CD-ROM. 2.2 Upon approval of the content of the revised VDS by the Executive, the VDS documents may then be typeset and formatted in a more professional manner ready for Policy Review Committee. 28
2.3 Upon approval by Full Council, the VDS documents may be used in making planning decisions as part of the Local Development Framework 3 Legal/Financial Controls and other Policy matters 3.1 Legal Issues 3.1.1 Upon Adoption, there is a period of 3 months for anyone to launch a legal challenge to the document. Interested parties who have taken part in the consultation may consider such action. 3.1.2 Some responses received demonstrate disagreement with the concept of the VDS: these disagreements relate to the use of the document rather than the content of the document. However, the purpose of the VDS is clearly set out within the documents and therefore Access Selby does not consider such misuse of the document by developers to be likely within the planning framework as a whole. 3.1.3 The Solicitor to the Council is in agreement with the above. 3.2 Financial Issues 3.2.1 The costs associated with the Village Design Statement programme have been accounted for in the budget: 4. Conclusion 4.1 The Council has undertaken a full public consultation in cooperation with its Parish Council partners to complete the latest round of Village Design Statements. Those documents have been amended appropriate to the responses received to the consultation and are presented to the Executive for approval. Upon approval, they may be typeset and presented to Policy Review Committee and subsequently to Full Council for Adoption. 5.
