Minutes:

Report DRR15/048

 

Consideration was given to an update on planning appeals received and decided for the year 2014/15.

 

Councillor Bennett JP was disappointed to note that Bromley had lost 48% of appeals compared to the national figure of 34%; this clearly indicated existing issues which needed to be addressed.

 

Councillor Michael reported that the Local Authority had won more cases with written representations compared to the national average.  The Local Authority dealt with more contentious applications due to issues such as the resulting impact on Green Belt land.

 

RESOLVED that the report be noted.
