Planning

Planning Services ensures that new development takes place at the right time, in the right location and in the public interest.

Important - New Charges

It was agreed at the Full Council meeting on 11 January 2012 to change our charges for the 'pre application planning advice service'.

The new charges will come into effect from 6 April 2012. There will be a £50 charge to apply for a meeting about pre application advice for householder planning applications. There will also be a £25 charge for only written advice. The new fees can be found at 'Will I Get Planning Permission?' with a pre application request form and guidance about what to submit.
