Agenda and decisions

To approve the Minutes of the meeting of the Committee held on 21 July 2016.

That the minutes of the meeting held on 21 June 2016 be approved as a correct record.

The Councillors will be asked to say if there are any items on the Agenda about which they might have been lobbied. The Councillors will also be asked to say if there are any items on the Agenda in which they have disclosable pecuniary interests, which would prevent them from participating in any discussion of the item or participating in any vote upon the item, or any other interests.

Members declared interests and identified planning applications on which they had been lobbied, details of the applications will be contained in the minutes of the meeting.

Most debates take place in public. This only changes when there is a need to consider certain issues, for instance, commercially sensitive information or details concerning an individual. You will be told at this point whether there are any items on the Agenda which are to be discussed in private.

All items were taken in public session.

The Chair agreed to the addition of two late urgent items – item 12 - application for a definitive map modification order and item 13 – erection of a temporary mast at Emley Moor Television Broadcast Site.

The Committee will receive any petitions and hear any deputations from members of the public. A deputation is where up to five people can attend the meeting and make a presentation on some particular issue of concern. A member of the public can also hand in a petition at the meeting but that petition should relate to something on which the body has powers and responsibilities.

No deputations or Petitions were received.
