About

The Planning Committee is responsible for considering and deciding on certain planning applications within the Borough of Boston. It scrutinises information relevant to applications and makes decisions to approve (with or without conditions), reject, or defer them. This process ensures democratic scrutiny and accountability for important or large-scale developments, or those with significant public interest. Members of the public have opportunities to address the committee and ask questions as part of the council's public participation arrangements.
