Planning committee

The planning committee is made up of elected councillors of the City Council who have powers to make decisions on planning applications. They meet every 4 weeks to consider planning applications which are large or complex, controversial, or have had objections made against them.

Members of the public are welcome to attend meetings of the planning committee. They should be aware of the protocol for dealing with planning matters.

Not all planning applications are decided by the planning committee. Most applications are dealt with by officers. You should ask us how the application you are interested in is to be dealt with.

These meetings are usually held in The Council Chamber at -

The Guildhall

Alfred Gelder Street

Rules and procedures for speaking at meetings of the planning committee

The public can attend the Planning Committee. Anyone who wishes to speak at a Planning Committee should register in advance.

The chair will retain discretion to limit the number of representations or speakers if it is clear that the same points are being made.

Note that we will only inform you when the application is to be reported to committee if you have made representations, are the applicant, or their agent.
