Subjects in what the minutes record

  • Spoke on parking
    “Councillor Wynn referred to the 11 working age professionals as occupiers and queried why there was the assumption of such low car ownership and commented that this did not reflect real world behaviours as the very people they were looking to attract would most likely be car owners.”

  • Spoke
    “Councillor Wynn referred to the report and queried how realistic that assumption was when the previous use was a care facility and was not occupied by 11 able bodied residents.”

How this is worked out

Everything here is read from Sunderland’s published planning committee minutes, 5 meetings from March 2026 to September 2026. A councillor is matched across meetings by the council’s own member number where it has one, otherwise by full name.

Each vote shows how it is known. Named in the minutes: the minutes, or the council’s own recorded vote, list each member with their vote. From the count and the names: the minutes give the numbers and name the members in the minority, and every member present is known. All members present in favour: the minutes say every member voted for it and the members present are known. No vote against recorded: the minutes record the decision with no vote against, no abstention and no count, at a council whose minutes print a divided vote when there is one, so each member present is counted for. Unanimous vote: the minutes call the decision unanimous, or give a count with no one against and no one abstaining, and each member present is counted for. From the meeting recording: the vote was heard on the council’s recording of the meeting and closes exactly with the members present. Where none of these holds, the vote is left as “Not recorded” and is not counted.

Votes are on the resolution the committee passed, so a vote for is a vote with the majority. A vote is a decision on the application in front of the committee, not a statement of the councillor’s views. A percentage is shown only with five or more votes, decisions or meetings behind it.
