The Council will call an Extraordinary Full Council meeting, in accordance with our Standing Orders, and following the request of ward Cllrs this is a single item agenda. Although members of the public can engage directly on planning via Northumberland County Council and the link above, many value the Town Council as a conduit for democracy in this process. Ashington Town Council, like others, are a consultee in the process and will agree their response at the meeting.

The formal summons for the meeting will be published 7 days in advance. The meeting is subject to the usual standing orders. The meeting will be held at Bothal Primary School to give greater capacity and accessibility.
