Professionals

We have launched a new pre-application advice service. This new service delivers improvements in the consistency and timeliness of the advice we give to developers prior to the submission of planning applications.

In order to achieve these improvements we have introduced new fees. You can download an advice note.  which explains these charges and the service we provide.

Up to date guidance about changes to the national planning system can be found at the Planning Portal and Communities and Local Government website.

If you are submitting information to the council in connection with a planning application, you are advised to read the Online planning terms and conditions and the data protection guide before submitting this information.

The information that you need to submit with your application is explained in the national and local list of planning application requirements. The requirements of both of these lists need to be complied with before we can consider your proposal.

Our current local list has been adopted following an 8 week consultation exercise.

Parking Standards

A parking study on residential standards was carried out in April 2010 and proposed revised standards were consulted on. This has resulted in a review of current standards.

We have produced some guidance on completing the correct Ownership certificate when submitting a planning application.

We have also included a page for our popular agents forum for further information please contact our Development Management team.
