Planning

​

Parish councils have the right to make comments on planning applications affecting their area.

 

The planning authority (which is usually East Suffolk Council) allows a parish council 21 days to respond to a planning application.  The application will be considered by the parish council at the next council meeting (if there is a meeting within that time-period) and will feature on the agenda as an item to be discussed.  Members of the public are welcome to attend meetings and can speak during the public participation item on the agenda to give their views on a planning application.  They are also encouraged to provide their own comments on East Suffolk Council's planning pages.  Due to coronavirus restrictions the appointed members of the Oulton Parish Council Planning Working Group will be considering applications outside of meetings and will carry out separate site visits to the locations to make an informed decision.  Should you have any issues/concerns/questions about a planning application please do not hesitate to contact the Clerk.
