Apply for planning permission

Before you apply for permission, have you considered a pre-application enquiry ? We will:

• check that you need to make a full application;
• let you know whether we are likely to grant permission; and
• suggest changes you could make to increase your chances of success.

We encourage online planning applications through iApply or the Planning Portal. You can also download application forms to print and send with your plans.

Data protection

We maintain a register of planning applications and applications for tree work, which includes personal details of people who have:

• submitted a planning application;
• commented on a planning application;
• submitted pre-application enquiries and hedgerow removal notices; or
• submitted a complaint about a high hedge, together with details of the person living at the property where the hedge is growing and the person who owns the property.

To maintain this register, we collect and use personal information about you. For more information about how we process this data, please see our Data Protection page.
