378 Appeal Decisions PDF 27 KB
Minutes:
The
Committee considered the report of the Head of Planning and
Development setting out details of appeal decisions received since
the last meeting. It was pointed out
that the decision to refuse application 13/1456 for a solar farm
and associated works at Great Pagehurst
Farm had been made by the Planning Committee and not by the
Officers acting under delegated powers.
In
response to questions:
The
Development Manager confirmed that he was awaiting a response to
his letter to the Quality Assurance Unit at the Planning
Inspectorate regarding inconsistencies in appeal
decisions.
The
Vice-Chairman confirmed that clarification regarding the role of
Members, particularly Planning Committee Members, at appeals was
being addressed as part of the review being undertaken of the
provisions of the Council’s Constitution relating to the
Planning Committee.
RESOLVED: That the
report be noted, and that the Officers
be congratulated on their work on the appeals.
