Planning applications are published in several different ways. All applications made are shown on the "Weekly List of Planning Applications and Associated Matters" which is available on the planning home page of this site and in hard copy at the Planning Information Desk, at our Community Information Centres, via Town and Parish Council and by subscription. The lists of Planning Applications received and Application Search on the left hand side of the screen can also be used to view this. These are updated daily.

The advertisement list on the left hand side of this page shows applications which have been advertised and are still in the consultation period.
Comments on applications should be received within 21 days of acceptance of the application or of the date it was published - the milestone dates shown when viewing applications on line show the date by when comments should received, as do letters sent out, site and newspapers notices.
Comments can be made direct from this site when viewing applications, by email to planning@uttlesford.gov.uk, and in writing to The Council Offices, London Road, Saffron Walden, Essex CB11 4ER. All comments must include the planning application number. Comments made anonymously or marked confidential cannot be taken into consideration.
The majority of planning decisions are made by the Director of Development under delegated powers others are discussed by the Development Control Committee which meets every third Wednesday.
Please Note:
All comments made on planning applications must be made available for public inspection (which can include by electronic means) if they are to be taken into account prior to a decision being made on an application. The Planning Inspectorate have introduced an online appeals service.

Your comments may include personal details such as your name, address, email or phone number. Please ensure that you only provide information, including personal information belonging to you that you are happy will be made available to other in this way.
