Planning advice notes 

 

We have prepared a series of Planning Advice Notes to give you an idea of what developments we want to encourage in the borough.

The Planning Advice Notes provide useful guidance for planners, developers, architects and facility managers. The Planning Advice Note provides guidance on the implementation of the Local Development Framework.

Although you do not have to follow the advice in the Planning Advice Notes to get planning permission, we will consider whether you have followed the advice when we are deciding planning applications.

Where appropriate your development proposals should show how you have followed advice from the Planning Advice Notes.
