The application will seek full planning permission for the development. Respondents are therefore welcome to comment on the principle of development and any matters relating to its design including its appearance, layout, scale, and landscaping.
What Happens Next?
Comments will be reviewed in conjunction with the design team and a ‘Consultation Statement’ will be submitted alongside the planning application. The Consultation Statement will summarise the comments received and provide details of any design changes made in response to public consultation. It will also aim to address residents’ queries where possible. Following the receipt of a planning application, Hambleton District Council will carry out its own consultation exercise.
