Comment on a planning application

During the 21-day consultation period anyone can submit comments on the development - either objecting or supporting, or a general comment. All valid comments will be considered when making a decision on the application. You can only comment on a planning application during this 21 day consultation period. 

Submitting comments

It is possible to submit comments:

• Online: Track and Trace planning applications
  You will need to search for the application you want  to comment on in the Track and Trace system and then click on the Submit a comment on this application link.
• In writing: Send your comments by post to:
  Planning Service, Council Offices, Ffordd y Cob, Pwllheli, Gwynedd. LL53 5AA

You can view details of planning applications by looking at the Track and Trace planning applications system online,
Or call in to:  Siop Gwynedd, Ffordd y Cob, Pwllheli (Monday - Friday, 09:00 - 17:00).

 

What type of comments will be considered?

The most common types of comments that will be considered are:

• does the development conform to planning policies and the Joint Local Development Plan?
• comments about the design
• impact on neighbouring properties such as severe loss of light or privacy
• impact on highway safety

We cannot consider comments about:

• loss of view
• land ownership disputes
• personal character of the applicant
• moral issues
• property devaluation

 

What will happen if anyone objects to my application?

Even if objections are received, this does not necessarily mean that the application will be refused. A copy of the objection (or support) will be placed on the paper planning file which is a public file and the case officer will consider the comments for and / or against when assessing the application. Receiving objections to an application does not necessarily mean that the application will be rejected.
