What we do
Our main job is to assess proposals for development: either
physical work like new buildings and extensions, or changes of use
of land or buildings. The section deals with the processing of
applications for Planning Permission, Advertisement Consent, Listed
Building Consent, Conservation Area Consent and Hedgerow Removal.
We also give informal advice on proposals.
Development Control is divided into two teams.:
The Southern Area Team covers the Malvern and Upton-upon-Severn
area, and the Northern Area Team covers the rest of the district
including Kempsey, Powick, Martley and Tenbury.
If you would like further advice or assistance, contact
Customer Services.
A 'Duty Planner' will normally be available to answer general
planning enquiries between 10am and 1pm Monday to Thursday. If you
are travelling a long distance, please contact Customer Services to
check availability.
