What is Public Access? Public Access is an on-line internet service that allows you to view plans and documents relating to the Local Development Framework (LDF) and Planning. You can monitor the progress of an application, submit comments about a planning application or LDF document, search a constantly updated list of planning applications received and decided upon, view details of historic applications and search for property details using an interactive map.
Limitations Public Access is available online between the hours of 6am and 3am The service continues to be developed, however at the present time no constraint information is available online. The online planning history contained within the site at present is incomplete and must not be used as a substitute for carrying out a formal Land Charge Search.

Similarly the information contained within Public Access does not constitute in any way a formal notification of a planning decision, and as such any actions taken as a result of information displayed on the site are undertaken entirely at the viewer’s own risk.
Under normal circumstances the plans and documents associated with new planning applications will be able to be viewed within 5 working days of receipt of the application.
