Planning Committees
There are four Planning Committees responsible for
making decisions on the bigger and more sensitive planning
applications received by the Council: a centrally based Planning
& Environment Committee and three Area Planning
Committees. Each of the Planning Committees meet on a monthly
basis.
You are welcome to attend Planning Committee
meetings and listen to the debate, or you can speak directly to the
councillors who make the decisions on planning applications.
