We are currently experiencing a significant increase in planning application submissions at the same time as managing reduced staff resources.
We are doing everything we can to provide advice and respond to correspondence as quickly as we can but we are prioritising planning applications at this time.
As such you should expect some delay to our normal response times for planning advice.
Information and advice about the planning process and what needs permission is available at Planning, Planning Portal (opens new window) and Gov.UK (opens new window)
We would encourage you to contact us by e mail if at all possible, to free up our phone capacity for those who cannot use email.
