So typical of the people in power in our area

Only thing to report so far is that the amended application for Fossetts is with planners and in the process of being validated.
Cllr Buck (Tory - Prittlewell) is not covering himself in glory....clearly hasn't read anything and is confusing this meeting with a planning committee (not a surprise to anyone who has worked in local government to have a confused councillor who doesn't understand the processes!).
Then why did Cllr Gilbert specifically mention 4th December in his quote on the recent website story?
I get all the logic behind why it might not be given permission this side of New Year, but it still seems to be the aim and none of us know what has gone on behind the scenes. So until I hear otherwise from those who would know, I'm not writing off 4th December, no matter how unlikely and unrealistic it seems.
I’ve just looked it up, and the public consultation period is actually only 21 days, the council have a target of 16 weeks in which to make a decision.
Once it is validated, that's when the clock starts ticking - there'll be a statutory public consultation period (28 days IIRC) and they'll want consultation responses from all the statutory consultees too - highways, archaeology, ecology, water, etc. etc. - then and only then can the officers put a report together for the council to consider, and only then will planning permission be granted. With the best will in the world, I can't see planning permission being granted before March 2021 and that would be quick for a development of this size.

According to the Development Control Committee website, the special meeting which was scheduled for 24 February has been moved - to an unspecified date. This was for the stadium, no question. So we will need to see when the new date is. Probably not far off but it may have been delayed by Ron’s brush with COVID-19 (if we’re being kind).
Wasn't April mentioned on the "Meeting with Ron" thread?

Does it matter ? Do we need a new stadium in Non League football ?
Yes. It's the only way we'll ever get rid of Ron.
Sad but true.Yes. It's the only way we'll ever get rid of Ron.
Another ‘Special Meeting’ of the DCC has been set for two weeks time on Tuesday 30th, agenda tbc.
