Please note the next meeting will be on Tuesday 20th May at 7.30pm following the Annual Parish Meeting being held at 7pm.
Planning Statement of Community Involvement Consultation - Monday 17 March to Monday 12 May 2025 (8 weeks)
The Council will shortly be going live with their consultation on the proposed changes to the Planning Statement of Community Involvement. This concerns a proposal to stop sending neighbour letters for certain types of planning applications, as most of our neighbour comments are received electronically. There is a statutory requirement that we notify neighbouring residents about a planning application by sending a letter, or by placing a site notice on display in the relevant location. Currently, they do both.
The consultation is due to run for 8 weeks, running until 23:59 on Monday 12 May 2025.
