About your application

Completing the forms accurately, submitting clear plans and providing detailed information helps everyone because:

  • it helps applicants to explain their intentions
  • it helps Planning understand what is involved and assess it fully
  • it helps people whose views are sought about a proposal to give proper advice in the shortest possible time
  • it can avoid neighbours misunderstanding what is proposed and raising queries or objections.

You can apply by the following methods:-
