The Council’s Development & Building Control Registers

The Council has an online register for records relating to both Development and Building Control. Please note that all registers are updated daily. Should you require assistance accessing details on the registers, or information regarding determined files, please contact Lynn Bouyiouka direct via lebouyiouka@valeofglamorgan.gov.uk or or Tel: 01446 704770. For applications, appeals or enforcement cases that have not yet been determined, please contact the officer indicated.

The registers are as follows:

Planning Applications Register

A standard search allows you to choose your own criteria on which to search (e.g. Application Number, Location, Applicant etc).

Alternatively, the following predefined searches can be used (using the menus on left):

• All outstanding planning applications (i.e. yet to be determined).
• Planning Applications started (validated) in the last 28 days.
• Planning Applications determined within the last 28 days.
• Applications for Major Development awaiting a decision.
• Householder applications awaiting a decision.

Commenting on a Planning Application

If you would like to comment on a planning application you can write to us at the address above or you can Email your comments to: developmentcontrol@valeofglamorgan.gov.uk

Please ensure you include full details of the application including the reference number.

Commenting on planning applications which are to be reported to Committee

When comments are submitted in relation to planning applications that are being reported to Planning Committee, outside of the statutory consultation period of 21 days, it should be noted that those comments may be received too late to be included within the formal committee report. This is because reports are usually prepared some two weeks before the actual Planning Committee Meeting.

In order to ensure that members of the public and other organisations/bodies with an interest in a particular application are not placed at a disadvantage, the Authority will accept and report observations received up until 12 p.m. on the day before Committee. These comments are circulated in the form of a late report to Committee members on the evening before Committee by Email and are presented in hard copy form at the actual meeting.

Planning Appeals Register

The online appeals register allows you to search and view details of appeals that have been made since 1990 in respect of planning applications and Enforcement Notices. Again, where relevant documents are available, these can be viewed. In addition to the Standard Search, the following predefined searches can be used (using the menus on left):

• All outstanding appeals (i.e. yet to be determined).
• Appeal Decisions during last 28 days.

Planning Enforcement Register

The online planning enforcement register allows you to search and view alleged breaches of planning control that have been or are being investigated by the Vale of Glamorgan Council since 1996.

Where a legal Notice has been served (for example, an Enforcement Notice or a Breach of Condition Notice) such documents can also be viewed.

The standard search allows you to choose your own criteria on which to search (e.g. Council reference number, location, alleged breach, etc). The following predefined searches can also be used (using the menus on left):

• All cases currently under investigation.
• All cases started in the last 28 days.
• Cases closed within the last 28 days.
• Cases where a legal notice has been served (i.e. the Council’s register of Enforcement and Stop Notices).

Building Control Register

The online building control register allows you to search and view Building Regulation Applications that have been submitted to the Vale of Glamorgan Council since 1996. When available, this includes associated documents.

A standard search allows you to choose your own criteria on which to search (e.g. Building Regs Number, Location, Build Type etc). The following predefined searches can also be used (using the menus on left):

• Outstanding applications.
• Applications Commenced within 28 days.
• Applications Completed within 28 days.
