Planning applications, the local development plan and what can be built where.
What councils do
Councils decide planning applications for new buildings, extensions and changes of use, and write the local development plan that says where new homes and jobs can go. National parks decide applications inside their boundaries.
Who decides
Planning officers decide most applications. Larger or disputed ones go to the planning committee of councillors, which meets in public.
Having a say
Anyone can comment on an application while it's open, usually for 21 days. Stick to planning matters such as traffic, design, noise and overlooking.
In numbers
Welsh councils plan to spend £40 per person on this in 2026-27.
It ranges from £13 in Pembrokeshire to £152 in Neath Port Talbot.
Planning applications decided within eight weeks: 42% across Wales.
RESOLVED: Pursuant to this Committee’s delegated powers the following development control applications be determined in accordance with the recommendation set out in the reports of the Director of Planning, Transport and Environment, subject to any further amendments as detailed below and notification be given of the decisions in accordance with Section 70 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 or Section 74 of the Planning (Listed Building & Conservation) Act 1990.

REASON:
This application was considered on 6th July 20122 Planning Committee where it was resolved to defer the application to the next meeting of Planning Committee for reasons for refusal. The application was refused for the following reasons:

REASON: The use of the property as an 8 bedroom House in Multiple Occupation has the potential to further exacerbate the unacceptable cumulative adverse impacts on the amenities of the area by virtue of:
§ a higher number of transient residents leading towards less community cohesion and undermining the objectives of securing a sustainable mixed use community, contrary to Policy KP5, Policy KP13 and Policy H5 of the Cardiff Local Development Plan (2006-2016) and advice contained within the Houses in Multiple Occupation Supplementary Planning Guidance (2016).

1.
