In preparing the reports the case officers have taken into account all the planning issues relating to the application including: • All National and Local planning policies and legislation. • All other relevant National, Regional and local policies and legislation. • Relevant case law • All comments received from statutory and non statutory consultees (including neighbours and other local people). • The physical features of the property/site. • The details of the proposal. Clearly there is a lot of information to be considered. To keep reports to a readable length and to make sure that the important issues are fully covered, some of the more generic considerations are not explicitly referred to in the report or are only mentioned briefly. However, all the Councillors who sit on the Development Control Committee have been trained in all aspects of considering planning applications and are aware of the underlying issues which may not have been referred to directly in the report. What is in the report? In respect of policies, legislation and case law, those which provide the most important advice/guidance on the issues under consideration are referred to in the report. In respect of comments from statutory and non statutory consultees, these are not normally reported in full. Although all relevant comments received are reported, they are usually summarised. Comments that have been received relating to matters which are not material planning issues are not normally reported. If they are reported for any reason, the fact that they are not material planning issues is clearly stated in the report. In respect of the physical features of the site and the details of the proposal, the most significant features/details and those which can not easily be seen in the plans attached to the report are described in the report. In the Considerations section of the report, the Case officer sets out the pros and cons of the application in relation to the relevant polices, legislation and case law and the comments received from everyone who has responded to the application. The importance of planning policy The most important factor that the Committee must consider is the relevant planning policies. Firstly there are the Council's
