We encourage applicants to submit applications online via the planning portal. Alternatively, you can download the forms and submit them by post.
From 6 April 2008 there are new National Standard Planning Application forms in use by every local authority in England.
The new forms are being introduced by the Government as part of the move to streamline the planning system. Superseding all existing planning application forms (with the exception of minerals forms) from 6 April, this will become the only method of applying for planning permission in England.
The new forms will provide a consistent format and set of questions and aim to help to make the process of applying for planning permission more straightforward for applicants.
Whilst you can still submit your applications on paper, there are distinct advantages to be gained by completing the form online and applying electronically.
The intelligent nature of the forms means that it is quicker and easier for you to complete the forms online because it is clear which part of the forms you need to complete dependent on your earlier answers. In addition to completing the form, you can attach drawings and other files. Payment to Thanet District Council can be made online, over the phone or by cheque.
The aim is to encourage new ways of working within the planning service that will support an almost paperless system.
To ensure that you provide the information necessary for your application to be processed efficiently, different forms and accompanying guidance notes, are provided for different types of application, these include:
For the first time, if you need to apply for two consent types, e.g. planning permission and listed building consent, combined forms are available which include the questions for both application types. If you use one of these combined forms, even though you only have to complete one form, it will be treated as two applications and you will be advised of two application numbers, one for each type of consent.
