Planning

Navigate the planning process with ease. Our planning section provides essential information on all elements of the planning process. Please note that face to face meetings with a planner must be arranged two weeks in advance - see Contact Our Planning Office below. The Council's LDP draft Plan Strategy was published in September 2025, followed by a consultation period which was advertised as due to end on 15 December. However, an administrative error has been identified in relation to the placement of an advertisement a week later than had been intended. In order to comply with legislative requirements, a further consultation period shall now be undertaken commencing in January 2026. Notifications shall appear in press accordingly. All those who have submitted a representation shall be written to separately. SEE Local Development Plan section BELOW.
