We have a Scheme of Delegation to assist with the delivery of the planning function. You can view it as a PDF on this link.
Decision making in respect of the majority of local planning applications will be delegated to appointed officers.
Local developments are likely to comprise the vast majority of residential and minor commercial applications. These will include:
- changes to individual houses
- single dwellings
- smaller developments
Weekly list of delegated applications
View the weekly list of delegated applications with recommendations to refuse and/or objections received here.
Through providing these lists applicants and those with an interest in a delegated application can ask for it to be considered by the Planning Committee. This is known as 'called in'.
