How to comment on planning applications

Points to note

• At the top of your comments, write ‘Comments on the planning application of’ followed by the address, and ideally its reference number.
  
  
• Comments or opinions must backed up with logical and reasoned arguments. There's very little point only moaning or praising or being very emotional about your reasons.
  
  
• You should say whether you think the application should be: accepted; accepted with certain changes (and explain what these should be); or rejected.
  
  
• If you would like to be sent a letter with the outcome of the decision, please request this in your email or letter, and include your name and postal address.
