Planning Applications

 

The parish council is a statutory consultee for all planning applications in Whepstead. In effect, that means that West Suffolk District Council sends the details of all applications to the parish council and invites the council to make comments. Although the parish council is a statutory consultee, anyone can object to, or support, applications. It must also be remembered that planning permissions are granted, or refused, by West Suffolk District Council and not the Parish Council.
