Creating a new account
We have recently upgraded our planning system.
You’ll need to register for an account to search and comment on planning applications.
If you already have an account, you can sign in here.
Some planning applications and public comments from before the upgrade (27 November 2024) may not have transferred to the new system. However, they can still be accessed in the original system and will still be considered by the planning officer.
Application notifications
If you receive a notification about an application, please allow up to two hours for all documents to become available. Some require manual processing before they can be viewed. If documents are missing, please check again later.
Weekly lists
Weekly lists of planning applications are no longer sent by email. Instead, you can view live, updated lists anytime through the new system. You can search applications for the South Downs National Park on their website.
Need some help?
A guide to help residents navigate the site is also available.
