Blog: Windsor Planning Meeting 16 August 2017

Tonight’s planning meeting in Windsor will be held at the Guildhall from 7pm and will include 8 items including giant LED displays, a Christmas Ice Rink, an infill development and roof raising proposals.


Most planning applications are decided by RBWM’s team of excellent planning officers but, Councillors, wearing their statutory planning authority hats, are from time to time called upon to debate and decide certain decisions in public – why? is a whole set of other ball games which I will talk about at some stage in the future.

Such Windsor Planning public meetings are currently held under the name Windsor Urban Development Management Panel for items in Windsor Town, including Dedworth and West Windsor.
