Consultee responses
Councillor Nicholson read out an email from AECOM saying that they felt a revision of the sites assessment report would be appropriate given the responses from landowners.
The Clerk was asked to reapply for the technical grant through Locality to enable this revision.
The Clerk will check whether there is a cost to this before applying.
Committee members discussed responses received from consultees.
It was agreed that once a revised report is received from AECOM that a public consultation with parishioners would be scheduled.
