Planning Application Validation Checklist

Different types of planning applications require different kinds of background information in order for us to validate and process them.

Applying for permission sometimes requires you to supply a variety of plans, statements and other documentation before we can begin to process it as a valid application.

If you do not provide this information then we cannot validate your application and will be unable to process it and issue a decision on your proposals.

Due to the complex nature of planning laws and regulations certain applications may not always require the same background information as others.

As a result, each form (available in both our Pack Finder and Planning Application Forms pages) is accompanied with a Validation checklist. Please ensure that you include with your application all the listed items. If you feel that you are unable to supply all the requested information or it isn't appropriate to the application, please contact us.

Our Validation Checklist is based upon the Government's  Guidance for Local Planning Authorities published in January 2008. This is available for download by clicking on the link on the right of the screen.
