It was noted that members had visited the site on the previous day.

The Planning Officer introduced the report.

The following spoke under the public participation at meetings scheme:

• Mr Peter Wilkinson, supporter
• Ms Weaver, applicant

A motion to continue the meeting beyond three hours was put to the vote and carried.

The applicant confirmed that the extended apron would be made of hardstanding and not concrete as stated by the Planning Officer.
