Considering the number of neighbour comments already made to the application, the Parish Council has asked our County Councillor, Cllr Antonia Azocar-Nevin, to call the application in for a full Planning Committee review, so that the application is considered in full by our elected Councillors, rather than having a decision made by Officers.

If you wish to make a comment against the application, in support or against, then the deadline for submissions is 11th November.
