They can cover a wide variety of topics that may impact your life. They can include planning applications and appeals, road closures or proposals by pubs or nightclubs hoping to change their opening hours or make other variations. The purpose of a public notice is to make sure anybody – either an individual or a group – with an interest has an opportunity to find out about and comment on the proposal before a decision is made on whether to allow it to go ahead.
