Masterbaker,
I agree with your positive proposal to change the heading. It was sensible but, too many stuck with the 'No' heading, pehaps because they were either against the application being approved or they followed the 'No' heading like sheep.
Now some, no doubt those who would prefer the Planning Application [PA] to fail, have muddied the waters with the introduction of the term 'Fracking'. There is no mention of fracking in the Planning Application and the use of the term is a diversionary tactic by some on this BB. Too many BB members have fallen into the trap to comment on this unrelated subject. The PA, will be considered by Councillors on 17 March. They will either vote 'for' or 'against' the recommendation (to approve) of their Planning Officer. Last time COP26 was in the headlines; this time it is the sadness of PUTIN's invasion of Ukraine. We have to respect the decision of these Councillors although I am sure that they realize that a vote 'against' will result in an Appeal and an almost certain reversal of their decision. I believe that common sence and a realization of the longterm benefits to the local community will this time prevail.
