Decision:
RESOLVED -
To approve commissioning consultants to prepare an updated
Conservation Area appraisal and management plan for Oldham Town
Centre.
Reasons for the decision:
Option 1 - To approve commissioning
consultants to prepare an updated Conservation Area appraisal and
management plan for Oldham Town Centre. This will allow evidence to
be prepared to inform the Local Plan review and the implementation
of the Oldham Town Centre Masterplan and future development.
Option 2 - To not approve commissioning consultants to prepare an
updated Conservation Area appraisal and management plan for Oldham
Town Centre. This will mean that up to date evidence is not
prepared to inform the Local Plan review, which will limit the
effectiveness of plan policies. It will mean that the
implementation of the Oldham Town Centre Masterplan and future
development, is not informed by any management plan to help protect
and enhance the conservation area.
