Report by Head of Legal and Regulatory Support

The Chair welcomed everyone to the meeting.  In line with recent legislation for Civic Government Hearings, the parties (and any representatives) were given the options for participating in the meeting today.  The options available were by Video Call, by Audio Call or by written submission.  For this hearing two of the Objectors opted to proceed by way of Audio Call and both joined the meeting by telephone.

The Council’s Senior Solicitor, Sheila MacFadyen, advised that the Applicant had been in contact to request a continuation of this hearing as a situation had arisen which meant he was unable to attend today.

DECISION

The Committee agreed to continue consideration of this application until the Committee next met in April 2021.
