1 Procedure Note The Convener summarised the procedure to be followed at the meeting of the Local Review Body (LRB), a copy of which had been circulated to members prior to the meeting. 2 LRB06.22 Consideration was given to a Notice of Review in respect of the Planning Authority’s decision to attach conditions to the granting of planning permission for the formation of extension to watersports storage compound with associated boundary fence, access and road at Ground A, Lochlip Road, Lochwinnoch. (22/0414/PP). The following materials were before members in relation to the Notice of Review: (i) the Planning Authority’s Submissions which included the report of handling, accompanying documents and decision notice; and (ii) the Notice of Review, together with supporting statement and productions submitted by the applicant. The Convener confirmed that the LRB required to decide whether it had sufficient information before it to make a decision on this matter or whether further procedure was required to allow the LRB to determine Planning Application 22/0414/PP. Councillor Paterson, seconded by Councillor Nicolson, moved that: “Following the adoption of National Planning Framework 4 on 13th February 2023 the LRB invites the planning authority to provide a written statement which sets out an assessment of the proposal in relation to relevant policies in NPF4. The planning authority is being asked to provide this information, in the first instance, by Tuesday 4th April. The appellant will be notified once the response has been received from the planning authority. Thereafter, they will then be given a further 14 days, from receipt of our notification, to make any comments on the response from the planning authority.” This was agreed unanimously. DECIDED: (a) That consideration of the review be continued to a future meeting of the Local Review Body to allow for further information to be provided by way of written submissions; (b) That a request be made to the Planning Authority for a written statement setting out an assessment of the proposal in relation to relevant policies contained in National Planning Framework 4 to be submitted by 4 April 2023; and
