1App
Introduction
On 6th April 2008 a new national set of planning application forms will be introduced. These will be available to fill in on-line via the Planning Portal or to download in hard copy from this website.
The Standard Planning Application Forms (1APP) will replace all existing types of planning application forms (except minerals) within England. You will not be able to submit a planning application on any other form after 5th April.
Whilst there is a form for each type of application, you will also be able to combine applications on one form, for example, a householder application with a listed building consent.
Planning Application Fees
The government have issued an updated list of application fee increases. As a Local Planning Authority we have no control over the increase in these fees and it is a national requirement in England and Wales. The main increases are detailed below.
As from the 6th April 2008 the following proposed changes to the Fees Regulations will take effect:
A fee increase of 11% (£15) for householder applications
An overall 25% increase for other fees
A new maximum fee of £250,000 (or £125,000 if an outline application) for all except minerals and waste applications, for which the maximum will go up 25% (to £65,000)
A new fee of £85 for 'requests for confirmation that a planning condition has been fulfilled' (or £25 where the request relates to a householder development)
Examples of the new charges are as follows;
Application for a new dwelling will increase from £265 to £335
Application for householder consent will increase from £135 to £150
Application for change of use will increase from £265 to £335
Advertisement on business premises from £75 to £95A schedule of revised Planning Application fees is available below shortly for you to download.
Local Requirements
On this page you will find the local requirements for each type of application or combined application. The full definition of each local requirement is set out in an extract of The Validation of Planning Applications produced by the Department for Communities and Local Government in December 2007.
The full document can also be downloaded from the list below, called Draft Guide
The application forms themselves do ask for a reasonably high level of information and you may find it useful to refer to the checklists. The main types of form and the guidance notes are included in the list of documents. For any other type of form please use the link to the Planning Portal.
All these documents require Adobe Acrobat Reader. If you don't have Adobe Acrobat Reader® you can get it free from the Adobe web site. Please click the logo
