Sometimes we get it right and HDC agree with us sometimes we get it wrong. In respect of planning application 0901129ful this has been referred to the secretary of state.<br />(2) None of the councillors get paid so disbanding the planning committee as you suggest would not save any money at all.<br />Regards Dougdoug terrynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8203797342264998690.post-89580396474658314612010-03-15T07:52:22.752+00:002010-03-15T07:52:22.752+00:00There is not equivalence between HDC and SNTC. HDC...There is not equivalence between HDC and SNTC. HDC is the Council that takes the decision over most planning applications. CCC does the rest. SNTC is one of many statutory bodies which HDC has to inform before making a decision.<br /><br />Any planning decision has to be made on planning law, policies and rules. For any objection to succeed this has also to be based on the same law, policies and rules. <br /><br />For instance the Town Council has used Traffic Congestion as an objection to some developments. Yet the Highways Authority doesn't object. So the Town Council objection is discounted. <br /><br />Town/Parish Council Government isn't a level of Government throughout the country. So there are many areas where this level of Government just doesn't exist. <br /><br />SNTC is puffing up the importance of this committee. It has no power to determine planning applications and is a waste of time and money.Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10863451986665268836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8203797342264998690.post-58874516569383849722010-03-13T09:08:39.822+00:002010-03-13T09:08:39.822+00:00I'm assuming that the HDC planning committee h...I'm assuming that the HDC planning committee has primacy over it's SNTC equivalent?<br /><br />How often does HDC override SNTC decisions?<br /><br />I'm surprised that you advocate seeding SNTC influence to HDC, but do understand it from a cost perspective - is your desire abolish as simplistic as it appears? (straight question, no insult through the use of the word "simplistic" intended - I know it might read that way)<br /><br />By the way, excellent work - keep it up.Billhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07289418075953553498noreply@blogger.com
