Mike Varney, chairman of the Strategic Planning Committee, said: “I’m aware that there are a lot of people who want to have their say and we on the strategic planning committee want to listen to them.”

The hall at Hayle Community School has the capacity to accommodate about 250 people and there will also be an overflow facility in the foyer.

The public meeting on January 19 will see brief presentations from each of the four applicants and there will be display material in the foyer area. Anyone who attends the meeting who wishes to express their views on the planning applications to the Strategic Planning committee will be asked to register on arrival and will then be called upon to speak.

The public meeting is an opportunity for councillors to hear from local people on all sides of the debate and no decision will be taken on the day.

The planning applications will be considered by the Strategic Planning Committee at their meeting on Thursday 03 February to be held at County Hall in Truro.
