COVID-19 update - Planning and Building Control services

Due to the impact of the coronavirus our services are experiencing some delays with turnaround times.

Pre-application advice service: All 30 minute pre-booked appointments and meetings (face to face in the office) will now be changed to telephone appointments.
Site visit and site meeting options are now available to book where considered necessary, but all parties must adhere to social distancing and meetings can only take place outside until further notice.

Validating Planning and Building Control applications may experience some delays. Please submit applications online or by email as the processing of paper applications will be delayed.

Development Control Committee meetings are now being held virtually: see Council meeting live stream

Building Control continues to operate as a service. Please read the Service changes document before booking a site inspection.

Neighbourhood Planning in Freckenham

On 2 November2018, Freckenham Parish Council submitted an application to define the boundary of their Neighbourhood Plan. The regulations regarding neighbourhood area applications have recently changed and there is no longer a requirement for publicity if the application is for the whole parish area - as it is in this instance.

Under the Neighbourhood Planning (General) Regulations 2012 (as amended), the council confirmed the designated area on 2 November 2018.

A designation statement to this effect, a copy of the application and supporting information and a map identifying the neighbourhood area can be view below:
