Lib Dems stand up for residents rights
Councillor Jack Cohen, Leader of Barnet Liberal Democrats, is attacking proposed changes to the rules on public participation at planning committees. Under the existing rules if three or more residents object to a planning application, it has to be determined by the Planning Committee. This is why Planning Committees are so well attended and why so many residents turn up to exercise their right to speak. The Tory Council administration is no proposing that the minimum number of objectors that will trigger a referral to Committee is increased to five.
