KCA may consider 'planning guidelines'

The suggestion was made by Noel Clare at the most recent KCA meeting, in a discussion about past submissions made by the group to planning proposals.
Noel said that such submissions had typically been made 'at very short notice', and that perhaps the group should be more regularly checking the planning applications.
He also said that if the group had its own 'transparent' guidelines on how it might consider any application, it would mean that KCA wouldn't be 'reacting simply because somebody felt passionate' about it. "If these guidelines were published, it would show why we are making submissions," he said.
KCA chair Ann Cashman suggested that any such guidelines could be based on the Local Area Plan, and whether developers were proposing something not in keeping with the LAP. She noted that the next LAP is due for consideration next year, and that any KCA guidelines should be framed within that.
