Welcome to the Development Control
home page. Development Control is the process, laid down in legislation, which
regulates the development and use of land and buildings. Our dedicated staff
deal with just over 2000 planning and related applications which are submitted
to the Council each year. Whilst the Council encourages and facilitates appropriate
development, recognising its significance in building and protecting a healthy
economy and environment, the Council also has to carefully consider the potential
impact of proposed development and protect the public interest from inappropriate
development.
