The Development Control Committee of Lancashire Council approved minutes from a previous meeting on 16 July 2025. The Committee resolved to receive a report on further actions regarding an outstanding breach of a planning condition and undischarged conditions for land at Round O Quarry. Planning permission was granted for extensions and alterations to Cottam Primary School, subject to the Secretary of State's confirmation. The Committee deferred a decision on a new primary school and special educational needs unit at land off Henry Littler Way/Whittingham Lane for further investigation into site access, drop-off, and coach turning locations due to highway safety concerns. A report on decisions taken by the Director of Environment and Planning under the Scheme of Delegation was noted.
