||Planning Consultation
In certain cases, the Council must consult some government departments, agencies and specialist interest groups. We may also notify other Council divisions and interest groups depending upon the nature of the proposal.
We also consult occupiers of property and land adjoining or opposite the site and may extend this to a wider area basis or use site notices and advertisements in the press. A minimum statutory period of 21 days is given for replies before any decision can be made.
If the site of the application is near the boundary with another local authority we may also consult planning officers from the relevant Council.
If you would like to comment on an application please view our planning application search pages and search for the planning application you are interested in.
Please note any comments received after 3pm on the day prior to the committee will not be taken into consideration.
