Yes. Anyone can object, support or comment on a current planning application. The council is keen to give people who may be affected by a proposed development the opportunity to express their views. It recognises that neighbours who live in the vicinity of an application site may be aware of local conditions and problems that they may wish to highlight in the council’s consideration of the application. It is important to appreciate, however, that the council can only take into account matters which are relevant to the planning process.
The council's Public Access system enables you to view planning applications and register your comments by completing the form displayed through the 'Make a comment' button.
Please note that all responses will be published on the Council’s website, and will be open for viewing by members of the public. You should, therefore, refrain from making any comments that could be considered as defamatory or prejudicial as this could result in action being taken against you. The Council can take no responsibility for any comments made in planning responses, but we will investigate any potentially defamatory or prejudicial comments brought to our notice. Comments that the Council consider to be defamatory or prejudicial will be removed, and will not be taken into account in the planning decision.
