Committee meetings

Browse committee meetings

Planning Committee and the Joint Development Management Committee (JDMC) consist of elected Councillors who are responsible for determining planning applications. 

Public speaking rights 

Members of the public are welcome to attend the Planning and Joint Development Management Committee meetings. We have put together public speaking guides to set out how we allow the public to speak at Committee – including who can speak, how to register, the length of speaking time and policy on presentation of material:

Members guide

The purpose of the planning system is to consider development proposals in the public interest. To be successful, the planning system relies on Councillors and officers acting in a way that is fair and even handed. Councillors have a special duty to their constituents but a wider duty to the communities of Cambridge and South Cambridgeshire. 

Our public speaking rights document for members [PDF, 0.3MB] offers guidance to Councillors about good practice in the planning process. 

Protocol for officer-led site visits

Planning committee site visits are solely for the purpose of Members of that committee viewing the site. These are carried out to understand the site location and context of the application.
