Civic calendar
Consultation deadlines, hearings and council meetings we have listed, in one place. We add meetings by hand as the council publishes them, so this is not yet every meeting: check the council’s own pages for anything urgent.
Two kinds of date here. A deadline is something you can still act on. An event is something you attend or watch.

Consultation dates come from the agency’s own published key dates, and a person checks every one before it appears here. We never show a countdown off a date we inferred. If something is missing, tell us.
