35 Proposed changes to the Constitution in relation to Planning Committee
Report of the Executive Director of Corporate Resources and Customer Services
Minutes:
The Committee considered the report of the Executive Director of Corporate Resources and Customer Services proposing changes to the constitution in relation to the exercise of the Council’s planning powers.
The Chief Planning Officer presented the report, indicating that the proposed changes related to two key areas, namely:
(i) Clarification on what matters were delegated to Planning Committee to ensure that the more significant types of applications would be reported to Committee and those which were more routine would not be reported to Committee, thereby resulting in the more efficient management of Planning Services’ workload as set out in Table 1 to the report and set out in the revised wording set out in Figure 1; and
(ii) Minor changes in relation to the submission of petitions and the public speaking process as detailed in Section 3 of the report.
RESOLVED: That
|
(1) |
Council be requested to approve the proposed changes to matters which are delegated to Planning Committee and matters which will not be determined by Planning Committee as set out in Table 1 and reflected in the revised wording set out in Figure 1; and
|
|
(2) |
Council be requested to approve the proposed changes to the public speaking process as set out in section 3 of the report. |
