DURING THE CONSULTATION 

 

For planning meeting agendas please see under Parish Council - meeting dates.

 

 

 

 Members of the public are welcome to attend these meetings (which are open to the public) and they will be invited to contribute. Local councils such as Town and Parish Councils do not have a statutory responsibility for services such as planning.  The responsibility for the discharge of this function in the majority of cases rests with District and Borough Councils as the Local Authority.  For Gt Barton this will be West Suffolk Council.  

 Minutes from all planning committee meetings are included in the main Council minutes.  

If you are unable to attend the meeting but would like to advise the council of any concerns you may have, please email the clerk on infogbpc@gmail.com

The Government has just published its ‘Plain English guide to the planning system’. This document seeks to give a succinct summary of how the planning system in England works under 12 headings including national planning policy, neighbourhood planning, obtaining planning permission and planning enforcement Document

Responding to planning applications

When a decision is made on an application, only certain issues are taken into account; these are often referred to as 'material planning considerations' -  further information.
