Plans and drawings

There is no legal requirement to submit plans with applications to replace extant permissions.

Whilst all plans and drawings on this website are scans of scaled originals, the images will not appear at any particular scale on your computer screen. Written dimensions, where they appear, are the only indications of measurements on these images.

Determined applications

Should you require information on a determined application that is not available online, you can view the file at our offices, by appointment. However, if you require copies of information you may need to submit a Freedom of Information Act request - please email or ring 01969 652345 for clarification.

Other ways of viewing planning applications

As well as viewing planning applications using the search facility above, copies of current applications are normally held by Parish Clerks or can be viewed by appointment during normal office hours at our offices.

By putting up site notices, notifying neighbours and advertising some applications in the local newspapers we try to ensure that people who may be affected are aware of an application for planning permission. Relevant groups or agencies are also asked to comment on every application.

How applications are determined

While the more contentious applications are determined by the National Park Authority Planning Committee, straightforward applications are dealt with in-house and are approved by the Head of Development Management. These are called delegated decisions.

Members of the public who support or object to planning applications that are being determined by the Planning Committee are welcome to address the Planning Committee in person. To find out more about this procedure and about how the Authority makes planning decisions, visit our Planning Committee page.
