The Local Validation List (LVL) for Planning Applications was implemented on 2 January 2024, and reviewed later that year.
Since this time, the Local Validation List has continued to be well received by our agents. Notwithstanding this, any suggestions and comments received about the lists during this time have been collated, and during the recent internal review of the document, the possibility of amendments and improvements have been considered.
The purpose of this review is to improve the planning application requirements so that we can continue to ensure highly quality and relevant information is contained within all planning applications for everyone involved.
