CARNFORTH Town Council says it is being given 'insufficient time' to have its say on planning applications.

At their recent meeting, councillors noted that plans for a detached double garage at 28 Dunkirk Avenue had been approved without their having an opportunity to comment.

Councillors agreed unanimously to write to Susan Parsonage, chief executive of Lancaster City Council, to ask "why this continues to happen". She is also to be invited to attend Carnforth Town Council's October meeting.
