Validation Checklists for Planning and Associated Applications

General Information

Pre-Application Advice

In all instances the Council encourages applicants and their agents to have pre-application discussions regarding their development proposals. This is particularly relevant for larger and more complex or controversial proposals and should help applicants identify the information that needs to be submitted with their application. Please contact Development Control Team on 01691 677252 or via planning@oswestry-bc.gov.uk for further information.

Submitting a Valid Application

In order for the Council to deal properly and efficiently with the planning applications it receives, it is essential that the correct information is submitted, in order that your application is valid upon receipt by the Council. This guidance note sets out what "minimum" requirements applicants need to submit to enable the proper validation and determination of applications. This will ensure that applications are "fit for purpose" and minimise requests for the submission of additional information at a later stage. This in turn will enable the Council to provide a quicker, more predictable and efficient planning service.

Applications for planning permission must now be made using standardised national planning application forms. Copies of these forms are available at the following locations:

• Via the Planning Portal http://www.planningportal.gov.uk/PpApplications/genpub/Ecabinet
• Oswestry Borough Council, Castle View, OSWESTRY, Shropshire SY11 1JR

Dependant on the type of application to be submitted there will be different requirements for validation. There are a total of 27 different types of applications forms to cover each potential application scenario. Pease choose from the list below, for advice which is specific to the type of deveopment you wish to propose.

Please note that any application submitted without the relevant documentation identified in the checklists will not be validated and will result in delay in the determination of your application. The 8 or 13-week period for determination will only commence once all relevant documentation has been submitted to accompany the application.
