Planning Committee

As the planning authority, Suffolk Coastal District Council is obliged to take in to account every representation that is made by the parish, if it is made within 14 days, and if it refers to some aspect which is correctly a planning issue.

Planning - the development at Deben MillThe District Council applies its own published policies, and there are many of these.  It has to comply with the Local Plan, which will be replaced by the Local Development Framework, and also with the government's requirements and regulations.  Details of all the policies can be found at the District Council.  In balancing all these things Suffolk Coastal District Council cannot always give as much weight to the feelings of Melton people as we would like.  And, even within the village community, there are different points of view and conflicting interests.

The Parish Council Planning Committee is delegated to consider all planning application which affect Melton In each case it decides the appropriate response to the District Council taking into consideration the effect it would have on Melton Residents. Sometimes the impact on the village of a particular application will require consideration by the full council. It also makes sure that the views of Melton are heard in the discussions about new regional and local planning policies.

Full copies of the applications and notes of the comments or objections made by the planning committee group can be seen at the District Council offices or at the Parish Council Office during normal opening hours

Councillors on the Planning Committee are:

Cllrs Addington, Brockett, Butterwick, Eckersley, Hilson and Sherwen
