Agenda and minutes

Members will disclose any pecuniary and any other significant interests they may have in relation to the matters under consideration.

Councillor Gibson declared an interest in Item 1, Application No: 18/01008/FUL, under Item 5 of the published agenda; as he knows the owner of James Carter Homes (the Applicant). He did not consider that this gave rise to a perception of a conflict of interest and/or was likely to prejudice his judgement, nor did it amount to an issue of pre-determination and bias and therefore he stayed in the meeting and spoke and voted upon the item.
