1APP
The introduction of 1APP, a standard application
form to replace all existing forms (except minerals) within
England, is the only legal way of submitting a planning application
from 6th April 2008. It is the latest step in the
Government's drive to provide a more efficient planning system.
The benefits
- a simpler more transparent planning process
- familiarisation with just one form for all application types
and all Councils
- electronic form intelligently determines the planning consent
type (including multiple type of consents) and the planning
application form requirements
- standard information, such as contact details, does not need to
be re-entered for future applications
- a better chance of submitting a valid planning application
- a tool to calculate the fee payable
- the option to pay online direct to the authority
Although it is still possible to submit applications on paper,
the full benefits will only be realised through it's use as part of
the electronically based process. The Council therefore encourages
the use of the electronic version wherever possible. Further
details can be found on the
Planning Portal website.
Alternatively, if you wish to receive a paper copy of the form
please visit

Design on 01952 380380.
