Read the evidence before making a shortlist

A new validation date and a recent decision represent different stages of a project. Read the proposal, check the outcome and use the original council reference to review drawings and conditions. Recorded activity does not establish that work is starting or that the applicant needs a contractor.

Sources and coverage

Supplementary planning records are collected through UK PlanIt from council sources. Coverage varies by register and may include older activity. Check the live map, inventory and source dates, and use the original council register to confirm a record.
