Frequently asked questions

Does my objection really count ?

Yes. The Council must consider all valid comments, whether they support an application or oppose it. What matters is quality and quantity: many individual letters making genuine planning points carry real weight — far more than a single petition.

Who can Object?

All members of the public are entitled to object to all planning applications and most other planning matters. More than one objection can be submitted per household and more than one objection can be made.

You don’t have to live locally, although the views of local residents and workers tend to hold the most weight.

What is a Planning Objection ?

In the case of planning applications, most local councils will notify immediate neighbours of the application site in writing. At this time, they will invite comments of support or objection. There will normally be a deadline to submit your comments.

Can I comment more than once ?

You can only meaningfully write once per application per person — but every member of your household can write separately, and you can comment on each application
