Do I need Planning Permission?
The type of work you intend to carry out will determine if you need planning permission, the type of application you need to make and if you need building regulation approval.
How we make planning decisions
The type, size and complexity of an application will determine how a decision is made. There are three ways in which a decision can be made:
- A planning officer may have the authority to determine smaller, more straightforward applications.
- Our Members of Committee will consider all major applications and others it feels may be of significance for the district.
- The Department of the Environment will make decisions that have regional significance.
