Simulate defending your planning application before the committee that decides it — the neighbour objections read into the record, the character-of-the-area catch-all, the parking pile-on, the councillor with a pet issue — run against your actual scheme, inside a three-minute speaking slot. Use when asked to prepare for a planning committee, my application goes to committee, rehearse my three minutes, or how do I answer the objectors. Produces the hearing transcript with member reactions, the objection-by-objection answer map grounded in material considerations, and the three-minute statement rebuilt. Pairs with planning-application-statement. Not planning or legal advice.

# The Planning Committee Skill

Committee is not a design review — it is a public meeting where elected members who may never have read your drawings vote after hearing three minutes from you, three from the objectors, and a recital of everything your neighbours wrote. Schemes with officer support die there on a mood; weak objections carry when nobody in the room separates material considerations from noise. This skill runs that room against your actual scheme: the objection recital, the member questions that arrive sideways, the pet-issue councillor, the clock. The debrief rebuilds your three minutes around the only things that legally count — and flags the moment an answer handed members a reason to refuse.

## What This Skill Produces

- **The hearing transcript** — objectors' statements, your slot, member questions, and the *member reaction* noted after each of your answers
- **The objection map** — every objection sorted material / non-material, each material one paired with its grounded answer
- **The three-minute statement, rebuilt** — timed, leading with what moves votes: policy compliance, officer recommendation, and the specific harms addressed
- **The don't-say list** — the answers that read as dismissive of neighbours or as new information that invites deferral
