RESOLVED -

That the Minutes of the meeting held on 18 November 2020 be confirmed and signed by the Chair as a correct record.

Councillor Grajewski declared a non-pecuniary interest and did not take part in item 8a as she is a neighbour of the applicant.

Councillors not on the Local Area Committee and members of the public can participate during this section of the meeting in the following ways:

·  If you are able to participate live (meet the technical requirements) and wish to be present and speak, you will need to notify Democratic Services 4 working days (Midday Thursday 7 January 2021) before the meeting. Technical and etiquette guides will be provided.

·  Alternatively, the public can email a statement to be read out by ‘the spokesperson’.  Emailed statements will need to be received 2 working days (Midday Monday 11 January 2021) before the date of the meeting. Democratic Services will confirm receipt of the email and confirm it can be read out.

·  The statement (including questions) will be the equivalent of a maximum of three minutes if read out.  Please therefore restrict your statement to one side of A4 (12 font).  This applies audio/ video recordings also.

·  Alternatively a MP4 file will be sent to Democratic Services 4 working days (Midday Thursday 7 January 2021) before the meeting.  This must be accompanied by a written transcript (emailed). In the event that the file does not meet technical requirements the transcript will be read by the spokesperson and shown on the screen.
