Consultation during COVID-19
In light of the current situation under COVID-19 restrictions and social distancing measures, temporary Pre-Application Community Consultation regulations were introduced. These removed the requirement for a public event but encouraged and provided guidance for alternative consultation measures. We are using a number of online, digital and remote tools to help you view, discuss and provide feedback to help shape/ influence our proposals.
Next Steps
Following the conclusion of this pre-application public consultation, all comments will be reviewed. Following a period of careful consideration, the applicant’s response to them will be recorded in a Pre-Application Community Consultation Report. Changes may be made to the proposal if considered appropriate.
The Pre-Application Community Consultation Report will accompany the application submission.
Other supporting technical and environmental documents that describe and assess the impact of the development will also accompany the application which will be submitted to the Council for determination.
Once the application is validated, the Council will undertake its own statutory consultation. The Council will notify the local community about the consultation and application process and how they can participate.
