Full Council meetings<\/strong> are where all Councillors attend to discuss and debate issues that affect the community. They are called by the Clerk who takes minutes which detail the discussion and the resolutions made. They are open to the general public and time will be allocated to any questions the public may have.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Planning meetings<\/strong> are where all Councillors attend to specifically discuss any planning applications within the Parish where comments have to be made to the South Downs National Park Authority before the next full council meeting. If there are no planning applications the meetings will not take place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
