PLANNING
AUTHORITY DECISIONS
Central Government
and the County Council have stated on many occasions that Parish
Councils should have greater authority in making decisions.
This is a very sensible statement, as the eleven elected Parish
Councillors are in the best position to know what is right for the
village they represent.
Every planning
application in the Parish is referred for consultation and the view
expressed is taken into account before the Planning Authority makes
its decision. Leven Parish councillors deal with many applications covering a wide
area of development in the village ranging from individual single
plot development to large sites on housing estates etc.
