Decisions

The Council currently decides nearly 1800 applications per year and deals with any appeals that are lodged. Most minor applications will be decided by the Development Control Manager without reference to a Planning Committee and in certain Parishes they are decided by the Parish/Town Council.

However, where four or more contrary views are received and these views are supported by the local Town or Parish Council and/or a Ward Member, applications are determined by the Planning Committee after considering a written report.

All Committee meetings are open to members of the public.  The reports contain a summary of any objections although the full text of any letter is available to Committee Members if they wish to see it.  The report will be available for inspection five working days before the Committee meeting.
