IMPORTANT: You MUST submit a new objection to this revised application, even if you objected before.
The official deadline for the public consultation is the 26th August. We currently believe however that you may object up until around a week before the planning committee date which we believe will be either October 8th 2026 (Committee A) or November 17th 2026 (Committee B)
