Decision details

SALE MOOR AND HALE PLACE PLANS

Decision Maker: Executive

Decision status: Item Called In

Is Key decision?: Yes

Is subject to call in?: Yes

Decision:

1. That the Sale Moor and Hale Place Plans be approved.

 

2. That the Action Plans for Sale Moor and Hale be approved and that the measures identified to improve both District Centres be explored.

 

3. That the main improvement areas identified in the Sale Moor and Hale Place Plans be agreed.

Reasons for the decision:

To enable delivery of the vision and objectives for both centres.

Alternative options considered:

Do nothing, rely on the new Local Plan or prepare a different strategy. Doing nothing would not deliver the change required in Sale Moor and Hale to create successful and viable centres in the long term that will support local communities and ensure businesses are able to thrive. Sale Moor and Hale centres are not identified as Strategic Locations in the adopted Core Strategy and so both centres need area specific proposals to bring forward appropriate regenerative development in the area. To rely on the new Local Plan to bring forward the proposals for Sale Moor and Hale would present too much risk of a delay as this document is reliant on the production of the Greater Manchester Spatial Framework (GMSF) and its associated timetable. A different strategy could be approved; however the final Place Plans presented have been prepared to reflect the consultation feedback received.
