MPC Planning Meeting tonight CANCELLED
Unfortunately we have had to cancel the MPC planning meeting due to be held this evening.
To act legally and come to a decision on MPC’s response to a planning application, there must be at least 3 Councillors who do not have to recuse themselves, that is not having to declare an interest in the application.
We have Members on holiday who were expected back, but are experiencing delays for various reasons.
A new date will be announced very shortly.
