Planning application

28 Whitney Drive Stevenage Herts SG1 4BH

Awaiting decision Stevenage 26/00639/ENQ10

Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.

Proposal

I wanted to find out if we would require planning permission and any requirements you have before proceeding with a garden room build. The company we are planning to use is stating that we shouldn't need it and just building regulations is needed as it should be under permitted development but they have also asked us to confirm with the local planning department.

What happens while it is decided

The process from here

This application is with Stevenage for determination. The council publicises it, consults neighbours and technical bodies where required, and weighs the responses against local and national planning policy.

The statutory target is eight weeks for most applications and thirteen for major development, though extensions of time are common. Comments carry most weight while the case is undecided, so check the council portal for the deadline if you want to respond.

About this record

Reading the register

This page mirrors an entry on the statutory planning register that Stevenage is required to keep. The published feed for this record does not state which type of application it is, which is common for older entries and for some council systems; the register entry on the council portal will say, alongside the case officer and any consultation dates.

Every planning application follows the same broad path: submission, validation, publicity, then a decision by officers or committee. Our guide to planning application types explains the common types and what each can approve.
