The Parish Council should respond within that time limit to ensure that the local voice is heard. Councils should comment in the light of the policies contained within the Local Plan (LDF). The Planning Authority cannot refuse an application, which is supported by these policies. Councils should ensure that their comments are not subjective or emotional. They should address only material i.e. genuine planning issues. The Campaign to protect Rural England has created a website to help people use the new planning system to shape their environment. http://www.cpre.org.uk/planninghelp Hockliffe Parish Council has a Planning committee with 3 members with delegated authority to consider and respond to planning applications and Local Development Plan documents received from the Planning Authority. All Planning Meetings are open to the public, so the public is fully aware of what is being discussed. Members of the public can also send their views to the Planning Authority directly in addition to visiting Central Council and asking to see plans there, but this does not affect the right to listen to the debate at Parish level and hear how the parish reaches its view on a planning application. Planning Meetings will take place at Hockliffe Lower School, Woburn Road, Hockliffe. Any Meetings/Agenda's are publicised giving at least 3 clear days notice. Meetings are on an adhoc basis due to the number of applications received. Any Meetings would be on a Monday at 7pm.
