The Planning Committee is
a group of councillors who meet monthly to deal with planning applications
and other related business. This is under Town and Country Planning legislation.
The members represent both political groups on the council. This is in
proportion to the number of seats they hold overall.
Meetings take place at Pittwood
House in Scunthorpe and at other locations in North Lincolnshire. They
are in line with a timetable. This is published at the start of each municipal
year.
Meetings are open to the public.
The local press is usually present.
