Determining planning applications
The Planning Officer dealing with the application will:
- visit the site
- assess any comments
- take account of relevant planning policies
and - may discuss amendments with the applicant (or their agent) before the application is determined.
A decision will not be made until the consultation or publicity period is finished. However, after these time periods have passed then the application will be determined either by:
- one of our officers (Officer scheme of delegation of our Constitution)
or - our Planning Committee
For each application an officer’s report is produced and this, together with the decision notice, is available through our searchable planning databases shortly after the decision is made.
