Public Speaking at Area Planning Sub-Committee meetings

Introduction

The Council has introduced a facility for public speaking at Area Planning Sub-Committee meetings where planning applications are determined. Initially, it will be introduced for a trial period of six months and adapted and developed during that time in response to feedback from the users.

If you wish to speak at Planning Sub-Committee

Please read the 'Public Speaking at Planning Committee' leaflet which explains the process, then telephone Committee Services on 01993 861523 no later than 9:00am on the Friday before the meeting.

If you require any additional assistance to make your representation, for example a hearing loop, help with access etc, please let us know.

Who is allowed to speak?

The following individuals and/or organisations can speak (in the order shown) after the case officer has made a short factual presentation of the proposals:-

A representative in support of the proposal - the applicant or other supporter
A representative on behalf of objectors;
A representative on behalf of the local council (Town or Parish Council or Parish Meeting)

No one is required to speak - it is an entirely voluntary opportunity.

After the speakers have finished the planning officer will enlarge on and update his/her report and answer questions posed by members of the committee.

What are Speakers allowed to say?

Speakers should clearly outline their views concerning the application, although it is important to remember that all comments must relate to the applications being considered and to the relevant planning policies. Please read the leaflet 'Commenting on Planning Applications' which provides some assistance regarding issues which can be raised.
