The Planning Portal is not owned by Greater Cambridge Shared Planning Service, but was created by the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government and is used by every local authority in England and Wales. You can use it to submit planning applications, as well as seeing information related to planning and the planning process.
If you require a formal determination about the need for planning permission for the proposed development, you will need to apply for a Lawful Development Certificate. For more information, please visit our validation checklists webpage.
Our online checklist is for guidance only and the information is not legally binding. You cannot use this form to apply for planning permission and this form is not monitored by our planning team. To apply for planning permission please visit the Planning Portal.
If you require planning permissions and want to seek further advice, please visit our pre-application advice service.
