Community Consultation

 

 

“Councillors should involve themselves in discussions with developers, their constituents and others about Planning matters.” They should “hold discussions before a Planning Application is made, not after it has been submitted to the authority.”
From “Positive Engagement”, a Guide for Planning Councillors, produced by a number of organisations including: LGA, ACSES, Standards Board for England, RTPI, PAS and ODPM.
