Introduction

The local list is prepared by the council as the Local Planning Authority (LPA) to clarify the information required for applications in our area. It has been created in line with the Plymouth and South West Devon Joint Local Plan.

Not all documents listed will be required for all applications.  For instance, if your application is not within the AONB, you will not require an AONB Statement of Need, or if your application does not affect a heritage asset or its setting, you will not need a heritage statement.

Please see our Application Types - at a glance guide to work out what you need to submit.

You should check each link and decide if it is applicable to your application.

Our Pre Application service can provide you with a list of documents you will need to submit.
