Agenda item

The Committee considered the monthly report on planning appeals lodged, withdrawn and decided. 

A discussion took place regarding one of the appeals which had been allowed.  The robust recording in the minutes of Member discussions regarding an application was mentioned as the Inspector will refer to the minutes of planning meetings when making decisions.  It was noted that meetings are recorded and these recordings are kept for three years from the date of the meeting.  The Chair highlighted that minutes are deliberately brief and the purpose of local authority minutes is to record the decisions made.

A motion to note the report was proposed, seconded, voted on and carried.

RESOLVED:

To note the report.
