How are you involved?

There are 3 main ways that you can be involved in the planning process

view the details of any new applications online
make comments on applications via the website, during the consultation period
address members of the relevant Sub-Committee, on applications that are reported to this Committee. Please note: unfortunately we are unable to give specific times when planning applications will be heard on the day of the Sub-Committee meeting.

When commenting on a planning application there are certain relevant issues that can be taken into account.

Please note: Whilst late comments will be taken into consideration by the case officer, where applicable, it may be too late to report these in full to the relevant Sub-Committee.

If you are an applicant or an objector to a planning application unfortunately it will not be possible for you to see a copy of the planning officers report (or know the recommendations) until it is either published as part of a committee agenda or an officer delegated decision has been made.

Please Note: All comments received on an application will be considered prior to a decision being made, however we are unable to respond to individual comments within letters owing to the volume of correspondence received.
