Southern planning committee meeting 31 May 2023, cancellation

25 May 2023 

The meeting of Cheshire East Council’s southern planning committee, scheduled for 31 May, has been cancelled. 

The date of the meeting of the southern planning committee had been widely consulted upon and had been agreed by council over a year ago, and the agenda had been published.  However, this did not take full account of the work which would need to be done following the borough council elections by the political groups to nominate committee members, and in order for members of the committee to be trained.

The cancellation of the meeting follows concerns raised by councillors at the annual general meeting of Cheshire East Council regarding the time available ahead of the scheduled meeting to prepare members of the committee.

Officers are now working to identify another date for the business which would otherwise have been considered by that committee.  All interested parties will be informed.
