Further Proposed Modifications to the North Hertfordshire Local Plan 2011- 2031
ED175
Representation ID: 8675
Received: 18/06/2021
Respondent: Mr Adrian Seville
My objection is that due and transparent process has not been followed.
My understanding is that NHDC submitted a request to the Inspector late in 2020 that Barkway should no longer be designated a 'village for growth' and that accordingly BK3 should be omitted from the planned development.
Evidently, the Inspector has not heeded this request - but no reasons have been disclosed for the decision.
In my opinion, this is a fatal flaw in the process, which would - if taken to Judicial Review - require the matter to be revisited by the Inspector.
You will be aware that there are powerful reasons for the removal of Barkway's designation as a 'village for growth', such that if they are to be overruled a proper and transparent procedure must be followed.
The reasoning of the Inspector, once disclosed, would of course itself be subject to review.
