Planning Forms and Fees

Planning Application Forms and Guidance Notes

The Council is now using the national standard 1APP forms although applications submitted on forms previously issued by the Council can be accepted until 6 May 2008.

To speed up the process you can submit your application online via the national Planning Portal website.

Planning Policy

Current and developing planning policy information can be downloaded. The law makes it clear that decisions on planning applications should be made in line with the policies in the Development Plan unless other strong reasons justify otherwise.

The Council has recently adopted a Supplementary Planning Document called 'Sustainable Low-carbon Buildings' which provides guidance on the implementation of policies to promote sustainable drainage, energy conservation and renewable energy. The requirements apply to all applications for planning permission, including householder applications. You are advised to refer to these new requirements before submitting your application.
