the Planning Committee. 


Recommendations 

That the Board: 
Ratify the decision of the Planning Committee (04-05-07) and formally approve the Local 
Plan for deposit and the associated work and publicity associated with depositing the Plan. 


Report 

The Cairngorms National Park Authority has a duty to prepare Local Plans for the Park and 
has been engaged in Local Plan preparation since September 2004. The Deposit Local Plan 
was considered by the Planning Committee on 4th May 2007, and to ratify this decision, the 
Board are asked to endorse this resolution, allowing the document to go on formal deposit 
on 9th July 2007 for a consultation period of 12 weeks. 

Appended to this report is the Consultation Report which must accompany the Deposit 
Local Plan. This summarises the representations received during the consultation phase on 
the Draft Local Plan (October 2005) and clarifies how these comments were taken into 
account in developing the Deposit version of the Local Plan. The Board are therefore asked 
to endorse the Planning Committee decision, and approve the publication of the Local Plan, 
and its placement on Deposit, together with the Consultation Report for further consultation 
in order to continue its development.
