When the Parish Council receives a tree or planning application from Wiltshire Council, if there is a meeting of the Parish Council due the application is put on the next meeting agenda. Residents are also invited to give an opinion at the meeting.
If no meeting is due, the Clerk will email the application out to Members to seek their input.
As the Parish Council only meet around five times a year many planning applications are dealt with without a formal Council meeting, by email amongst Members. The Parish Clerk then have delegated powers to make a response to Wiltshire Council on behalf of the Parish Council.
If you would like to express an opinion on an application that is not due to go to a meeting of the Parish Council, please contact the Planning and Development Portfolio holder (See Members page).
If there is significant interest in an application the Clerk will call an extra meeting.
