Development Management
The Development Management section are responsible for the determination of planning applications submitted to Shropshire Council.
At present, planning applications are assessed at a local level in accordance with policies set out in the local plan documents adopted by the five district and borough councils which combined to form Shropshire Council. These will shortly be superseded by a new planning policy document known as a Local Development Framework which is currently being prepared by the planning policy section. More information on the Local Development Framework can be found on the planning policy pages of this website.
It is important that site specific enquiries are directed to the relevant area team. To find out which team covers your area and to obtain contact details for the area offices, please see the Development Management teams page in the menu bar along the left of this page.
Development Management Charter
A 'Charter for Development Management' has been produced by Shropshire Council to explain the standards of service and performance that you can expect. A copy of the 'Charter' is attached to this page.
