Agenda item

The Executive RESOLVED to become a signatory to the Surrey Waste Local Plan Statement of Common Ground.

The Executive received a report detailing the content of the Surrey Waste Local Plan Statement of Common Ground (SoCG). The report sought agreement to sign up to the SoCG.

The Surrey Waste Local Plan set out Surrey County Council’s proposals for the development of waste management facilities.  The SoCG was an agreement between Surrey County Council and the eleven district/borough authorities within Surrey. It set out areas of common ground and any areas of disagreement on strategic matters relating to the planning of waste management in the county and the production of the Surrey Waste Local Plan.

Members were reminded that, in February 2019, the Executive had considered a report on the content of the Surrey Waste Local Plan and had agreed a response. It was noted that the report had set out that revisions to the Surrey Waste Local Plan had addressed objections raised by the Council.

RESOLVED to become a signatory to the Surrey Waste Local Plan Statement of Common Ground.
