Commenting on or objecting to applications
You can tell us that you want to object to a planning application, or that you support it.
When you make a comment on a planning application, your comments are recorded against that application, and are made available online to the public. Personal phone numbers, email addresses and signatures will not be displayed with your comments. There is usually a 2-3 working day delay between comments being received by us, and when they appear online. You will have to register with our online planning system to make any comments. Anonymous comments on applications will not be accepted.
