Planning applications - residential: Outline
When assessing a planning application, we look at things such as development plan policies, design, traffic, noise, privacy and public safety. We also review comments from the public and the impact on the natural or built environment.
For more information see How to make a planning application and for information on applications in your area see Applications and decisions.
