Public Access System Upgrade

The Council’s Public Access system for viewing planning applications is scheduled to be upgraded shortly. This upgrade will comprise a complete overhaul to the existing website and back-office system. As such, any user accounts that were saved on the existing system will be deleted and you will therefore be required to register a new account once the new system is operational.  We apologise for any inconvenience but anticipate that the new system will make it much easier  for users to identify particular documents.
