This document is the current development plan for the borough. It is the first point of reference for considering planning applications. Anyone considering new development in the borough that requires planning permission e.g. a new housing development, a conversion of housing to flats, the change of use of a shop should consult this document, and take note of the policies that will affect the Council’s decision on your planning application.
