All of the planning applications made to the council’s planning team this week are shown on the list below.

This week there are no major applications of note. Instead there are some run of the mill applications for retrospective consent for short term lets and a swathe of applications to trim trees and replace windows.

Any property owner seeking to build, improve or alter their home or commercial premises must have the correct consents. This begins with a planning application and usually progresses all the way to a completion certificate.

Some applications for large developments such as purpose built student accommodation have been referred to the government Reporter after refusal by the council. Alterations to some buildings may also need listed building consent which is dealt with simultaneously.

There is a class of alterations which are considered “permitted developments” and will not need any planning permission. There is more guidance here.
