planning applications.
Decision:
RESOLVED - That:
To approve the six week public consultation on the draft Statement
of Community Involvement.
Reasons for the decision:
Option 1 - To approve the six week public
consultation on the draft SCI. This will mean that the SCI will be
delivered in line with the Scheme of Delegation, which recognises
the importance of continued engagement on this planning document.
It will also mean that stakeholders and the public will be able to
express their views on how they would like to be engaged in the
planning process.
Option 2 - To not approve the six week public consultation on the
draft SCI. This would mean that the SCI is not delivered in line
with the Scheme of Delegation and the public will not be able to
express their views on how they would like to be engaged in the
planning process which may make them feel disempowered.
Alternative options considered:
Option 2 - To not approve the six week public
consultation on the draft SCI. This would mean that the SCI is not
delivered in line with the Scheme of Delegation and the public will
not be able to express their views on how they would like to be
engaged in the planning process which may make them feel
disempowered.
