Planning application
West End Stagsden Bedfordshire
Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.
Proposal
To notify applicants intention to submit an application under section 37 'Consent required for overhead lines' of the Electricity Act 1989 (the 1989 Act) to the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy in respect of the above proposed overhead electric line (OHL) at Kempston West End. (This is not a planning application so there is no consultation process or right to comment. The applicant is only required to inform the Local Planning Authority who does not determine whether or not the works proposed can be carried out.)
