Planning (Development Management)

Important Update

We currently have a backlog of applications and therefore validation is taking up to 5 weeks. If all the required information is present and accurate on an application it will be backdated to the working day it was received.

We are currently unable to receive new pre-application enquiries, but for existing pre-application enquiries and general enquiries the team can be contacted via planning@staffordbc.gov.uk

If anyone wants to submit an application / notification then it is strongly advised that this is done via the Planning Portal and any representations to planning applications / notifications should be sent via Planning Public Access or email planning@staffordbc.gov.uk.

If you have an issue relating to a breach of planning control please complete the online form.
