Changes to the Constitution for Implementing the Fast Track Planning Application Process PDF 141 KB To receive a report from the Monitoring Officer Additional documents:
Minutes: The Monitoring Officer reported that the Head of Development requested a change to the Constitution to allow for the delivery of Fast Track Planning Application for Householders. This would require a change to the Constitution in Part 3.2.2 Functions of Planning Committee, to reduce the call-in period where a Local Ward Member requests it from 35 days to 21 days.
Members raised concerns over how these fast track applications would be highlighted in internal communications to allow Local Ward Members to easily identify them.
After careful consideration Members concluded that this report needed to be deferred to allow officers to include a standard method for highlighting fast track applications.
RESOLVED
That changes to the Constitution for implementing the Fast Track Planning Application Process be deferred to allow time for officers to amend the report to include the views of the Governance Committee.
