6. Presentation: – by the consultant which provided an update on where we are now in the process. At stage 1, of the 34 sites offered for consideration 3 have been withdrawn, 2 are in flood risk zones and 18 are not within or adjacent to a named settlement: this leaves 11 for closer scrutiny. At stage 2 another 5 sites were determined to be unsuitable and 3 were reduced in size and re-numbered. This leaves 6 sites for further consideration (for full details on how this was achieved refer to the \site \assessment report available on the NDP website). Recent communications result in the need to revisit 2 of the sites previously eliminated and a further site has been offered for consideration. An addendum to the Site Assessment report to cover these changes will be produced by the end of November for consideration at the next committee meeting.
