Apology from Cllr E Stephenson

Cllr E Stephenson has agreed to the following wording being included on the agenda for a future meeting of the Planning Committee:

 

“At the Planning Committee on 5 July 2017 I made some comments in relation to the Fleetwood Pier application. As you will no doubt recall, it was a very controversial meeting which was noisy, heated and emotional.  I was very much aware of the strength of public feeling in Fleetwood about the impact the proposed development would have and having heard the debate felt passionately that it should have been refused. However, a Panel of Standards Committee Members has now informed me that some of my behaviour at that meeting amounted to a breach of the Councillors Code of Conduct.

 

I apologise for that breach.”

 

The Committee is asked to note the apology.

Minutes:

Cllr E Stephenson agreed that an apology as set out on the Planning Agenda for her comments at the Planning Committee meeting on 5 July 2017, would be put before the Committee.

 

Resolved

 

That the apology be noted.
