Central Bedfordshire Council is inviting residents to have their say on improving the way planning applications are submitted. The consultation is open and will accept feedback until Friday, 13th September, at 10 am.
The documents involved are known as the Validation Guide and varied local validation checklists required to be completed when submitting planning applications.
This Validation Guide is designed to assist individuals in completing and submitting planning applications. The guide and checklists aim to streamline the application process, ensuring the right documents are submitted from the outset and reducing the need for resubmissions.
Richard Fuller MP said:
I welcome the news that CBC are looking at ways to improve the way planning applications are submitted to help residents navigate the system and I encourage people to take part in the consultation.
