Planning Guidance - Householders
Overview
This document sets out the Council’s expectations for householder developments.
It provides guidance for:
- people who are thinking about making changes to their home.
- professionals involved in the process.
What is householder development?
Work to alter or enlarge a single residential property. This includes works within the boundary or garden of a property.
Why your views matter
We want the guidance to help people understand what we require for householder development. We want the outcome of the process to be good for all users. To do this, we want to make sure the content is clear, helpful, and balanced.
