Proposals to reduce the size of Lichfield District Council’s planning committee could be approved this evening (February 20).
A report earlier this year had suggested slashing the size of the panel from 22 to 15 members.
It outlined that smaller committees were now considered best practice and could help the council improve its performance on major planning appeals, which it admitted were still “well below” the national average.
A meeting of Lichfield District Council this evening will make a final decision on the proposals.
