Planning

The Parish Council’s role in planning

The Parish Council is consulted on planning applications within the parish and in parishes close to its boundaries. Parish Councils are one of many planning consultees. The decision-making authority for planning applications in Cornwall is Cornwall Council.

Parish Councillors review planning applications before each Parish Council meeting. Parish Council meetings are held in public, with a public speaking period near the start of each meeting. The Parish Council decides whether to support or object to each planning application and sends its comments to Cornwall Council.

You can view every planning application for the parish — current and past — on Cornwall Council’s online planning register using the button below. You can search by keyword, application reference, postcode or address, or browse by map.

Applications currently before the Council

The planning applications the Council is considering at its next meeting are set out on that meeting’s agenda. You can also view every current and recent application for the parish on Cornwall Council’s online planning register.
