Pre application Advice – Proposed Changes
Following a decision of the Council in February of this year and our earlier press release the Council will be introducing charging for pre-application enquiries from the 1st July 2008. The details of the scheme have been set out below for your assistance. The exceptions to this new charging policy are all householder pre-planning application enquiries, Listed building enquires and enquiries from registered social landlords. All other enquiries will be the subject of the charging regime. In the case of enquires asking whether planning permission will be required these should be submitted as an application for a Certificate of Lawful Development.
