Step 3 – the officer’s report

The Planning Officer’s Report will summarise all the representations by the public and the other issues material to the case. This report sets out all the key impacts and how they relate to local and national policy. The report will include a recommen­da­tion to refuse or approve the planning application.

• To maximise the weight of your objections in this report, you would have presented a few distinct killer arguments. The more relevant these points are to relevant planning policies the better
• Before the local council planning committee meeting, contact the relevant local councillors to express your views. While councillors on the planning committee are not allowed to express their view until the decision is made, they still have an absolute duty to listen to your views – so this is your chance to influence their opinion early on.
