Before you make a planning application advice and guidance
Pre-application advice
香港六合彩资料图库 County Council in its role as the County, Minerals and Waste Planning Authority, processes planning applications relating to minerals and waste management proposals and for developments it intends to carry out itself (under Regulation 3 of the Town and Country Planning General Regulations 1992), such as schools, libraries, roads and railway stations.
The County Council welcomes and encourages early discussions with applicants on the merits of a proposal before a planning application is submitted.

The introduction of a charging regime for pre-application advice provides a clear and time-bound process for both applicants and planning officers, adding certainty to the procedure and improving the accountability of the advice.
The pre-application process helps identify the information required to accompany a planning application; where relevant consideration of how the draft proposal may be amended to make the development more acceptable in planning terms:
- identifies where there is a need for specialist input from a range of technical specialists
- helps the applicant to understand the material planning considerations relevant to the development proposed
- how an application would be judged against the relevant planning policies
- other material considerations and whether this policy context supports the principle of development
