THE PLANNING PROCESS
New builds, extensions. conservatories, loft conversions etc. are all subject to Planning Control. Anybody intending to build, extend, or alter a property must submit plans to Braintree District Council for approval. The plans will be sent to the relevant Parish who will be invited to make comments. At this point, Sible Hedingham Parish Council Planning Committee will assess the application and, if necessary, consult with the applicant and any other interested parties such as neighbours, and will frequently make a site visit. The Parish Council will relay its comments to the District Council, but the Parish has no decision-making powers of its own, neither is the District Council obliged to follow advice given by the Parish. Planning Committee meetings are open to the Public and representations will be taken into consideration when making recommendations to Braintree District Council. Forthcoming Planning Committee meetings are advertised on the Notice Boards and on this website (see Agenda For next Meeting) Any individual wishing to comment on a planning application may do so at the Planning Committee meeting, and/or in writing. Written representations can be made to Braintree District Council and Sible Hedingham Parish Council, but the latter would appreciate a copy of any letters sent to Braintree.
Here are the Minutes of the Planning Committee from July 07 to date.
