Online planning

Submit planning applications online
Submitting an application and accompanying documents online is easy. For waste and county matter applications you need to submit your applications using a 1APP form. To access the online 1APP form follow the link to the Planning Portal site.

Existing arrangements will continue for the time being for minerals developments.

Find out about previous applications determined by the council
