Validation Checklists

A validation checklist is a tick list to help you make sure you have submitted everything necessary to make a planning application.  This is in line with Government advice to make the process of submitting a planning application easier for everyone. You may need to submit some additional information  if your property is in an area of outstanding natural beauty.  Use the interactive map to find out if this applies to your property.

The validation checklist advice note explains how we decide if your planning application is valid, how important it is to use the relevant application validation checklist and some general advice that we encourage you to think about before submitting an application.  It also provides our contact details and other useful contacts.

This section provides guidance on what information you need to submit in relation to sustainable design with your  planning application.  It also provides links to other pages and websites where you can find further information.

The statement you will need to write should explain the proposal in relation to its context.  A good understanding of the context is essential to raise the quality of the design, access and sustainability of a proposal.  The statement must show how the proposal has addressed the nature of its surroundings and how it will improve the environment.

This sheet includes guidance on the fee you will need to include with your application.

This will give you a guide to the process we follow with your application and the approximate timescales.  More complicated applications can take longer.
