Decision details

The Village and Communities Officer introduced the item which had been previously considered by the Committee on 15 January 2015.  The Committee were asked to consider the examiners report and accept modifications so that a referendum on adoption of the plan could take place.

It was confirmed tha Derbyshire Dales District Council would carry out a referendum and all those registered to vote within the area will be able to take part.  Over 50% of those who vote need to say yes for the plan to be adopted.  Before it could be adopted the Plan had to receive support from more than 50% of the electorate voting on the proposal.  The exact wording of the question on the ballot paper was included in the report.
