Issue - meetings

The Assistant Director of Planning and Planning Policy presented a report, which set out the Planning Service’s performance against the Government’s quality of decision-making targets.

From July to December 2023 the Council had had no appeals on major planning applications and three appeal decisions on non-major applications.  Two of these appeals had been dismissed and one had been allowed.  The appeal that had been allowed had been refused by Planning Committee, contrary to the officer recommendation.  However, this only equated to 0.57% of the number of non-major applications determined within that period.  Details of the three appeals were attached to the report at Appendices 1, 2 and 3. 

The Council had had no appeal decisions against the issue of an enforcement notice.

Moved by Councillor Tom Munro and seconded by Councillor Duncan McGregor

RESOLVED that (1) the six-monthly report be noted;

(2) the Planning Service continue to report appeal decisions to Planning Committee every six months.
