Can't find what you're looking for?

There are thousands of planning applications viewable on this site and more are added everyday. You can view application forms, certificates, site location plans, layout plans and elevations and (where an application is decided) decision notices.

Q: I can't see the planning application I made recently - where is it?

A: Don't worry if your application doesn't appear on this week's list. There are always a number of applications in hand waiting to be checked. This means we can’t guarantee the completeness of the list on any particular date but these pages are continuously updated and if you have any concerns please contact Planning Services on 0115 9155426 for more information.

Q: Why can't I find the whole planning history of a particular property?

A: We have scanned records back to 1991 but there are a small number of applications that still remain to be scanned. Therefore you shouldn't rely solely on the information contained in this system for a full and comprehensive planning history of a property but if you have any concerns please contact Planning Services on 0115 9155426 for more information.

Q: Help I can see my planning application more than once - what's happening?

A: Don't worry, some applications are duplicated in the weekly and monthly lists and other search result listings because we have recorded them as affecting more than one property address in our property database. If you see an application number listed twice you will be able to view the details by selecting either number - the details are the same.

Q: Why can't find application details using the planning reference number listed on my Local Land Charges Search?

A: Planning applications are referenced on our website with a number in the following format: [2 digit year]/[5 digit number]/[application type code] For example, 08/00001/PFUL3. However, for many years the Council used a different reference system based on year, month and application number. Between 1988 and 1998 both systems were used, but applications can only be located using the web search facility using the newer reference number format.

If you have been given an application reference number in the old format you will need to know what the alternative new format number is before you can locate the application details online.

We have provided a spreadsheet which lists the old and new reference number for all relevant applications in our database. You can use the spreadsheet to search for the old reference and find out the new reference number, which you can then put into our online search facility. Click on the 'original and new application reference numbers' link in the download links on this page. Please note that although the spreadsheet lists all applications in our database with two reference numbers, details are only currently available online for applications submitted since 1991 (i.e. with a 'new' format number beginning 91 or greater).
